"Finally, USP14 S432 is dramatically more phosphorylated in PTEN knockout mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), which carry high levels of Akt activity, than that of WT MEFs as determined by western blotting using the phospho-USP14(S432) antibody and phos-tag electrophoresis ( xref ), and the phosphorylation of USP14 S432 was blocked by Akt inhibitors ( xref )."

"Thus, S432 phosphorylated and unphosphorylated USP14 might be distributed differently in the cells. We next determined whether phospho-mimetic mutant of USP14 could be further activated by interacting with proteasome. Interestingly, we found that the Ub-AMC hydrolytic activity of S432E mutant could be further activated when incubated with proteasome in vitro (Figure 3H). Taken together, these results suggest that S432 phosphorylation and interaction with proteasome may be two different regulatory mechanisms for USP14."

"Xu et al. reported that serine/threonine kinase could phosphorylate USP14 at Ser432, thus activating its deubiquitinating activity by transforming its catalytic site from the inactive conformation to the active form. xref Whether the activity of USP14 is regulated by serine/threonine kinase in ESCC is still questionable."

"When S432 is phosphorylated, the negatively charged phosphate group may induce a repulsive force, thereby relieving inhibition of the catalytic activity of USP14. (D) USP14 domain organization and sequence alignment of the Akt phosphorylation site within USP14 orthologs from different species. Two BLs (BL1 and BL2) covering the USP14 active site are shown. The Akt phosphorylation site in USP14 from different species as predicted by Scansite. (E) S432 is the major phosphorylation site in USP14."

"Interestingly, human USP14 contains a total of seven phosphorylation sites of which the Akt-mediated USP14 phosphorylation at Ser432 activates its DUB activity and facilitates cleavage preferentially towards Lys48- and Lys63-linked chains rather than linear ubiquitin chains ( xref )."

"We identified four phosphorylation sites on USP14 when it was expressed alone: Ser143, Ser230, Thr235, and Ser432 (Figure 1—figure supplement 1C,D). Notably, the phosphorylation levels of two of the four sites, Ser143 and Ser432, were increased considerably in cells expressing activated Akt (Figure 1E)."

"Finally, USP14 S432 is dramatically more phosphorylated in PTEN knockout mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), which carry high levels of Akt activity, than that of WT MEFs as determined by western blotting using the phospho-USP14(S432) antibody and phos-tag electrophoresis (Figure 2I), and the phosphorylation of USP14 S432 was blocked by Akt inhibitors (Figure 2—figure supplement 1F)."

"Since Ser432 residue is located very close to a highly negatively charged patch (Figure 1C), we reasoned that when Ser432 residue was phosphorylated, the negatively charged phosphate group might induce a repulsive force, thereby inducing rearrangement of the BL2 loop and removing the inhibitory effect of this loop on the activity of USP14."
