Target Information

Modification of target proteins by ubiquitin participates in a wide array of biological functions. Proteins destined for degradation or processing via the 26S proteasome are coupled to multiple copies of ubiquitin. Attachment of ubiquitin or ubiquitin-related molecules may also result in changes in subcellular distribution or modification of protein activity.

Deubiquitination is catalyzed by proteases called deubiquitinating enzymes, which fall into four distinct families:

1. Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolases
2. Ubiquitin-specific processing proteases (USPs)
3. OTU-domain ubiquitin-aldehyde-binding proteins
4. Jab1/Pad1/MPN-domain-containing metallo-enzymes

Among these, USPs represent the most widespread deubiquitinating enzymes across evolution. They release ubiquitin from conjugated proteins and possess conserved catalytic domains with Cys and His boxes, while their N- and C-terminal extensions contribute to substrate recognition, localization, and protein interactions.
