The catalytic domain of human deubiquitinase DUBA
Structural highlights
Function[OTUD5_HUMAN] Deubiquitinating enzyme that functions as negative regulator of the innate immune system. Acts via TRAF3 deubiquitination and subsequent suppression of type I interferon (IFN) production. Has peptidase activity towards 'Lys-48'- and 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains. Can also cleave 'Lys-11'-linked ubiquitin chains (in vitro).[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMedAddition and removal of ubiquitin or ubiquitin chains to and from proteins is a tightly regulated process that contributes to cellular signaling and protein stability. Here we show that phosphorylation of the human deubiquitinase DUBA (OTUD5) at a single residue, Ser177, is both necessary and sufficient to activate the enzyme. The crystal structure of the ubiquitin aldehyde adduct of active DUBA reveals a marked cooperation between phosphorylation and substrate binding. An intricate web of interactions involving the phosphate and the C-terminal tail of ubiquitin cause DUBA to fold around its substrate, revealing why phosphorylation is essential for deubiquitinase activity. Phosphoactivation of DUBA represents an unprecedented mode of protease regulation and a clear link between two major cellular signal transduction systems: phosphorylation and ubiquitin modification. Phosphorylation-dependent activity of the deubiquitinase DUBA.,Huang OW, Ma X, Yin J, Flinders J, Maurer T, Kayagaki N, Phung Q, Bosanac I, Arnott D, Dixit VM, Hymowitz SG, Starovasnik MA, Cochran AG Nat Struct Mol Biol. 2012 Jan 15;19(2):171-5. doi: 10.1038/nsmb.2206.
