"Furthermore, USP18 was described to negatively regulate TLR-mediated NF-κB signalling: Yang et al. [60] suggested that USP18 inhibits ubiquitination of the TAK/TAB complex and the IKKα/β-NEMO (IκB kinase/NF-κB essential modulator) complex in a protease-dependent or independent manner, respectively."

"To further investigate whether deubiquitination of TAK1 by USP18 is required for USP18 protease activity, we generated protease inactive USP18 mutants by substituting a serine residue for cysteine within the catalytic domain (C64S), and by further substituting the conserved histidine residue with alanine at position 318 (C64S H318A)."
