USP7 deubiquitinates REST. 11 / 12
1 | 11

reach
"We hypothesized that HAUSP functions as a critical counterbalance to beta-TrCP to inhibit REST ubiquitination and maintain NPCs."

reach
"Wt-HAUSP specifically counteracted beta-TrCP-mediated REST ubiquitination, while the Mt-HAUSP or the control deubiquitinase USP1 did not alter the REST ubiquitination (XREF_FIG), suggesting that HAUSP directly and specifically deubiquitinated REST and suppressed REST ubiquitination."

reach
"Thus, we have identified the consensus HAUSP binding site (310-PYSS-313) on human REST that is required for the HAUSP mediated REST deubiquitination."

reach
"We determined that HAUSP physically interacts with REST as demonstrated in co-immunoprecipitation assays (XREF_FIG; XREF_SUPPLEMENTARY), suggesting that HAUSP may mediate REST deubiquitination to prevent REST proteosomal degradation."

reach
"Normally, USP7 can deubiquitinate and stabilise the repressor element 1-silencing transcription factor (REST) at a post-transcriptional level and maintain the neural progenitor cells [ 52 ]."

reach
"Collectively, these data demonstrate that HAUSP negatively regulates REST ubiquitination and promotes REST stabilization."

reach
"HAUSP knockdown increased REST poly-ubiquitination as demonstrated by both anti-REST immunoprecipitation (IP) and anti-Ubiquitin reciprocal IP (XREF_FIG; XREF_SUPPLEMENTARY)."

reach
"HAUSP deubiquitinates REST to promote neural progenitor cell maintenance as discussed earlier."

reach
"These data further support that REST deubiquitination is specifically mediated by HAUSP."

reach
"To further address whether REST deubiquitination is directly and specifically mediated by HAUSP, we performed an in vitro deubiquitination assay XREF_BIBR with purified wild-type HAUSP (Flag-Wt-HAUSP), catalytic dead mutant HAUSP (Flag-Mt-HAUSP), or a control deubiquitinase USP1 (Flag-USP1)."

reach
"Our data demonstrate that HAUSP directly deubiquitinates REST."
