Article Title: | Ubiquitin removal in the TGF-β pathway |
Abstract: | The transforming growth factor (TGF-β) pathway is regulated by ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis at different levels. Two studies now identify deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) for the TGF-β type I receptor. Both ubiquitin-specific peptidase-4 (USP4) and-15 (USP15) extend the life of activated receptors against the negative pressure of receptor-ubiquitinating complexes, but through distinct modes of action. © 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited.
