USP40 deubiquitinates Claudin1. 4 / 4
| 4

reach
"Similarly, our study confirmed that Claudin1 is degraded by the ubiquitin–proteasome system in HCC, and USP40 inhibits Claudin1 polyubiquitination to increase its stability.c-Myc is an oncogenic transcription factor participated in biological functions including cancer cell proliferation, EMT, cancer stemness, metastasis, and metabolic reprogramming [24, 25]."

reach
"Our study reveals that USP40 enhances HCC malignant development by deubiquitinating and stabilizing Claudin1, suggesting that targeting USP40 may be a novel approach for HCC therapy."

reach
"USP40 could interact with Claudin1 and deubiquitinates Claudin1 to stabilize its protein level."

reach
"Ubiquitination assay revealed that USP40 knockdown increased the polyubiquitination of Claudin1, whereas USP40 overexpression reduced the polyubiquitination of Claudin1 (Fig. 5G, H)."
