"Highlights d Free USP12 deubiquitinase is inactive and has several flexible structural elements d UAF1 and WDR20 can both activate USP12 without increasing its substrate affinity d UAF1 and WDR20 bind USP12 at two distinct sites away from its catalytic center d Two distinct allosteric mechanisms underlie USP12 activation by UAF1 and WDR20 Ubiquitin-specific proteases ( USPs ) constitute the largest family of deubiquitinating enzymes , whose catalytic competency is often modulated by their binding partners through unknown mechanisms ."
