reach
"In this case, STAT2 was able to bind USP18, but USP18 interaction with IFNAR was impaired, leading to prolonged type I IFN signaling (49)."

sparser
"Since we identified the critical region for the USP18 interaction with STAT2 ( xref ), we also examined whether a peptide comprising USP18 aa 302-313 could have a similar effect as STAT2 CC/DB domains."

sparser
"In this case, the mutation, p.(R148Q), retained USP18-binding capacity, but the STAT2-USP18 dimer could not traffic to IFNAR2 (so as to displace JAK1), also resulting in enhanced IFN-I signalling."

sparser
"Taken together, our results demonstrate that, by interfering with the USP18-STAT2 interaction, USP18-mediated inhibition of the type I IFN signaling can be suppressed."

sparser
"3D modelling of the STAT2-USP18 heterodimer showed both the amino acid residues, A219 and R148, to localize to the interface between STAT2 and USP18 (Fig.  xref c), suggesting that the A219, like the R148, residue might play an essential role in mediating a STAT2-USP18 protein interaction."

reach
"MDA-MB-468 cells contain a single nucleotide polymorphism splice variant in STAT2, which may alter Type I IFN signal transduction and/or the scaffold interaction between USP18 and STAT2 required for IFNAR repression."

sparser
"Therefore, we aimed to explore the specific mechanism of signal inhibition by the STAT2-USP18 negative feedback interaction."

reach
"These results established that the interaction of USP18 and STAT2 is responsible for recruitment of USP18 to IFNAR2 and is critical for the negative effect of USP18 on type I IFN induced JAK1 phosphorylation (XREF_FIG), which is upstream of type I IFN induced STAT1 activation."

reach
"USP18 decreased IFNalpha binding to U6A cells only in the presence of full length STAT2 but not STAT2DeltaCC/DB (XREF_FIG), supporting the notion that interaction of STAT2 and USP18 is important for the type I IFN ligand-receptor binding."

reach
"Together, these results establish that the interaction between USP18 and STAT2 mediates the inhibitory effect of USP18 on type I IFN receptor assembly and signaling."

"Based on our previous report xref and the results presented above, USP18 interacts with both IFNAR2 and STAT2."

"Binding of STAT2 and USP18 to IFNAR2 is synergistic, in line with the previous observation that the STAT2-IFNAR2 interaction was strengthened by USP18 xref ."

sparser
"Taken together, our data suggest that USP18 simultaneously interacts with IFNAR2 via STAT2 in the membrane distal region and directly in the membrane-proximal region ( xref )."

sparser
"We next examined IFNAR2-independent interaction of STAT2 and USP18 in IFNAR2-deficient U5A cells by using cell micropatterning."

sparser
"More detailed analysis of the interaction dynamics of the STAT2IFNAR2 interaction in the presence of USP18 by FRAP ( xref ) revealed a dissociation rate constant of 0.015 ± 0.005 s −1 ."

sparser
"These results established that USP18 independently interacts with IFNAR2 and STAT2."

sparser
"Mapping the STAT2 and USP18 binding to IFNAR2 by cell micropatterning of further deletions and mutations ( xref ) confirmed aa 418-444 of IFNAR2 as a minimal interaction site for STAT2 and USP18."

sparser
"The reported interactions between USP18 and IFNAR2 as well as STAT2 remain to be characterised biochemically and structurally."

sparser
"Recently, it was also demonstrated that USP18 can directly interact with STAT2 to form a complex that inhibits IFN-I ligand binding to IFNAR2 ( xref , xref )."

sparser
"Two siblings with early onset autoinflammatory disease with neurological features and elevated IFN signature were additionally described with a homozygous missense mutation in STAT2 resulting in gain of activity due to the inability of mutant STAT2 to interact with the STAT2-dependent negative regulator of interferon activity, USP18 [ xref ]."

"The I60N mutation has been shown to disrupt USP18-ISG15-STAT2 protein-protein interactions required for scaffold function in humans.17 50 51 To help clarify the structural basis of these changes, we modeled the USP18-ISG15-STAT2 complex with AlphaFold."

"XREF_BIBR, XREF_BIBR To asses whether STAT1 or STAT2, which are both upregulated by USP18 inhibition (XREF_FIG), are implicated in the upregulation of Bim, DP5 and PUMA mRNA expression in USP18 silenced cells, we inhibited in parallel USP18 and STAT1 or STAT2 in INS-1E cells by use of specific siRNAs."

"The authors have demonstrated that: (i) infection of iMphs with HIV-1 induces USP18; (ii) depletion of USP18 with CRISPR/Cas9 increases iMph reactivity to IFNI, the phosphorylation of STAT1 and STAT2, the expression of IFN-stimulated genes and ultimately results in a significant restriction of HIV replication in iMphs."

reach
"USP18 acts to prevent JAK1 from binding to IFN-I receptor and hence arrests phosphorylation of STAT1 and STAT2, essential components of the transcription factor complex that induces ISGs."

"Increasing concentrations of USP18 ( Figure 6B lanes 3, 4 and 5) show a concentration-dependent displacement of NS5 from STAT2, suggesting that both proteins indeed compete for the same region of STAT2.Thus, we evaluated whether the presence of USP18 could restore STAT2 expression in ISG15 knockout cells during DV infection."
