Ubiquitin-Specific Protease USP6 Regulates the Stability of the c-Jun Protein.
Molecular and Cellular Biology 2018 January 16
The c- Jun gene encodes a transcription factor that has been implicated in many physiological and pathological processes. c-Jun is a highly unstable protein that is degraded through a ubiquitination/proteasome-dependent mechanism. However, the deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) that regulates the stability of the c-Jun protein requires further investigation. Here, by screening a DUB expression library, we identified ubiquitin-specific protease 6 (USP6) and showed that it regulates the stability of the c-Jun protein in a manner depending on its enzyme activity. USP6 interacts with c-Jun and antagonizes its ubiquitination. USP6 overexpression upregulates the activity of the downstream signaling pathway mediated by c-Jun/AP-1 and promotes cell invasion. Moreover, many aberrant genes that are upregulated in USP6 translocated nodular fasciitis are great potential targets regulated by c-Jun. Based on our data, USP6 is an enzyme that deubiquitinates c-Jun and regulates its downstream cellular functions.
