Five DUB subfamilies are recognized, including the USP, UCH, OTU, MJD, and JAMM enzymes. In humans, there are three proteasomal DUBs: PSMD14 (POH1\/RPN11), UCH37 (UCH-L5), and Ubiquitin-Specific Protease 14, which is also known as the 60 kDa subunit of tRNA-guanine transglycosylase (USP14\/TGT60 kDa). USP14 is recruited to the proteasome through its reversible association with the PSMD2 (S2\/hRPN1) subunit of the 19S regulatory particle. Whereas PSMD14 appears to promote substrate degradation (3,4), USP14 is thought to antagonize substrate degradation (5-8). While the underlying mechanism for the opposing roles of these two proteasomal DUBs is still uncertain, it is thought that USP14 removes ubiquitin from substrate upon docking of the substrate with the 26S proteasome. Furthermore, USP14 trims ubiquitin residues from the distal end of the polyubiquitin chain, thus decreasing the affinity of the chain for the ubiquitin receptors of the proteasome, and allowing for enhanced substrate stability (6,9,10). Studies have elucidated a physiologic role for USP14 in regulating synaptic activity in mammals (11). Research studies have shown that targeting this activity with small molecule inhibitors has potential benefits for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and cancer (5,12).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nDeubiquitinating enzyme 14; TGT; tRNA-guanine transglycosylase, 60-kD subunit; Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 14; ubiquitin specific peptidase 14; ubiquitin specific peptidase 14 (tRNA-guanine transglycosylase); ubiquitin specific protease 14; ubiquitin specific protease 14 (tRNA-guanine transglycosylase); Ubiquitin thioesterase 14; ubiquitin thiolesterase 14; ubiquitin-specific processing protease 14; Ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 14; UBP14; USP14\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 60\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797561856169,"sku":"11931S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-11931s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
