Function
[UBP5_HUMAN] Cleaves linear and branched multiubiquitin polymers with a marked preference for branched polymers. Involved in unanchored 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin disassembly. Binds linear and 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin with a lower affinity. Knock-down of USP5 causes the accumulation of p53/TP53 and an increase in p53/TP53 transcriptional activity because the unanchored polyubiquitin that accumulates is able to compete with ubiquitinated p53/TP53 but not with MDM2 for proteasomal recognition.[1]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
USP5 disassembles unanchored polyubiquitin chains to recycle free monoubiquitin, and is one of the 12 ubiquitin specific proteases featuring a zinc finger ubiquitin-binding domain (ZnF-UBD). This distinct structural module has been associated with substrate positioning or allosteric modulation of catalytic activity, but its cellular function remains unclear. We screened a chemical library focused on the ZnF-UBD of USP5, crystallized hits in complex with the protein, and generated a preliminary structure-activity relationship, which enables the development of more potent and selective compounds. This work serves as a framework for the discovery of a chemical probe to delineate the function of USP5 ZnF-UBD in proteasomal degradation and other ubiquitin signaling pathways in health and disease.
