High impact information on UCHL5

  • Following binding, Adrm1 relieves Uch37 autoinhibition, accelerating the hydrolysis of ubiquitin-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin (ubiquitin-AMC) [1].
  • Furthermore, overexpression of UCH37 upregulates TGF-beta-dependent transcription, and this effect is reversed in cells subject to RNAi-mediated knockdown of endogenous UCH37 [2].
  • Uch2/Uch37 is the major deubiquitinating enzyme associated with the 26S proteasome in fission yeast [3].
  • The human orthologues of these enzymes are known as Uch37 and Usp14, respectively [3].
  • The activity of the C-terminal hydrolases UCH-L3 and UCH37 was upregulated in the majority of tumor tissues compared to the adjacent normal tissues [4].
 

Biological context of UCHL5

 

Physical interactions of UCHL5

  • In addition, we show that UCH37 can deubiquitinate and stabilize the type I TGF-beta receptor [2].
 

Other interactions of UCHL5

  • The interaction of UCH37 with S14 or UIP1 was confirmed by in vitro binding assay and in vivo co-immunoprecipitation analysis [6].
  • Recently, we have defined a novel interaction between Smads and UCH37 (ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase 37), a DUB (de-ubiquitinating enzyme) that could potentially counteract Smurf-mediated ubiquitination [5].
  • Recently, USP2 and UCH37 have been shown to deubiquitinate tumor-growth-promoting proteins, and other DUBs have been shown to be overexpressed in cancer cells [7].
