High impact information on DUB3

  • Finally, we have demonstrated that constitutive expression of DUB-3 blocks proliferation and can initiate apoptosis in both IL-3-dependent Ba/F3 cells and NIH3T3 fibroblasts [1].
  • We have also demonstrated that DUB-3, which was shown to be an active deubiquitinating enzyme, is induced in response to interleukin-4 and interleukin-6 stimulation [1].
  • DUB-3, a cytokine-inducible deubiquitinating enzyme that blocks proliferation [1].
  • In addition, human DUB enzyme DUB-3, highly homologous to USP17 and induced by cytokines interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-6, has been recently isolated and showed that it has significant homology to the known murine DUB subfamily members [2].
 

Anatomical context of DUB3

  • RESULTS: While identifying putative ubiquitin specific protease (USP) enzymes that contain a conserved Asp (I) domain in humans, 4 USP17 subfamily members, highly homologous to DUB-3, have been found (USP17K, USP17L, USP17M, and USP17N), from human chorionic villi [3].
