OTUB1 C/S represses ERα-dependent transcription, whereas OTUB1 Ubmut rescues ERα mediated transcription. A, OTUB1 C/S represses ERα-dependent transcription. HeLa cells were transfected with empty vector, OTUB1, or OTUB1 C/S in the presence of ethanol or E2. The inset contains Western blot showing equal expression of OTUB1 and OTUB1 C/S in this experiment. B, OTUB1 Ubmut rescues ERα-mediated transcription. HEK293T cells were transfected with an ERE-luciferase reporter construct, ERα, OTUB1, and OTUB1 Ubmut or vector controls. ERα transcriptional activity was analyzed in the presence of E2 or ethanol vehicle. The inset contains a Western blot showing equal expression of OTUB1 and OTUB1 Ubmut in this experiment. The lower panel indicates E2-dependent ERα fold induction of transcription. IB, immunoblot.
