Background and Additional Info

Background: Human ubiquitin thioesterase OTUB1 (Otubain 1, OTUB1) belongs to the ovarian tumor (OTU) family of deubiquitylases (DUBs). Human OTUB1 (271 amino acids) comprises an N-terminal helical extension that binds ubiquitin-charged E2 complexes, followed by the catalytic OTU domain housing the Cys91–His265–Asp268 triad. Crystal structures of OTUB1 in complex with UBE2D-ubiquitin (PDB 4DDI) reveal how the N-terminal helix and distal S1/S1′ pockets cooperate with the E2 backside to enforce OTUB1’s K48-linked poly-ubiquitin specificity.
