"Thus it is very hard to envision from these structures how USP12 is activated by UAF1, especially when the activation is due to an increase in k cat and not K M . It is possible that UAF1 binding stabilizes the flexible USP12 “fingers”, transforming it into a catalytically proficient state and this may not be visible since we compare it to a ubiquitin-bound USP structure."

"Together, these unique features of the Ub-free USP12 structures hint at possible involvement of the USP12 Fingers domain in enzyme regulation.To delineate the mechanism by which UAF1 activates USP12, we next determined the crystal structure of USP12 in a complex with full-length human UAF1 in the F222 space group at 3."
