USP4 is a member of the ubiquitin-specific protease (USP) family of deubiquitinating enzymes that has a role in spliceosome regulation. Here, we show that the crystal structure of the minimal catalytic domain of USP4 has the conserved USP-like fold with its typical ubiquitin-binding site. A ubiquitin-like (Ubl) domain inserted into the catalytic domain has autoregulatory function. This Ubl domain can bind to the catalytic domain and compete with the ubiquitin substrate, partially inhibiting USP4 activity against different substrates. Interestingly, other USPs, such as USP39, could relieve this inhibition.
Ubiquitin-specific protease USP4 is emerging as an important regulator of cellular pathways, including the TGF-beta response, NF-kappaB signalling and splicing, with possible roles in cancer. Here we show that USP4 has its catalytic triad arranged in a productive conformation. Nevertheless, it requires its N-terminal DUSP-Ubl domain to achieve full catalytic turnover. Pre-steady-state kinetics measurements reveal that USP4 catalytic domain activity is strongly inhibited by slow dissociation of ubiquitin after substrate hydrolysis. The DUSP-Ubl domain is able to enhance ubiquitin dissociation, hence promoting efficient turnover. In a mechanism that requires all USP4 domains, binding of the DUSP-Ubl domain promotes a change of a switching loop near the active site. This 'allosteric regulation of product discharge' provides a novel way of regulating deubiquitinating enzymes that may have relevance for other enzyme classes.

Ubiquitin-specific protease USP4 is emerging as an important regulator of cellular pathways, including the TGF-beta response, NF-kappaB signalling and splicing, with possible roles in cancer. Here we show that USP4 has its catalytic triad arranged in a productive conformation. Nevertheless, it requires its N-terminal DUSP-Ubl domain to achieve full catalytic turnover. Pre-steady-state kinetics measurements reveal that USP4 catalytic domain activity is strongly inhibited by slow dissociation of ubiquitin after substrate hydrolysis. The DUSP-Ubl domain is able to enhance ubiquitin dissociation, hence promoting efficient turnover. In a mechanism that requires all USP4 domains, binding of the DUSP-Ubl domain promotes a change of a switching loop near the active site. This 'allosteric regulation of product discharge' provides a novel way of regulating deubiquitinating enzymes that may have relevance for other enzyme classes.

The DUSP-Ubl domain of USP4 enhances its catalytic efficiency by promoting ubiquitin exchange.,Clerici M, Luna-Vargas MP, Faesen AC, Sixma TK Nat Commun. 2014 Nov 18;5:5399. doi: 10.1038/ncomms6399. PMID:25404403[1]
