Figure 3. UCH DUBs cleave ubiquitin chains from polyUb-SUMO2x4ΔN11 en bloc.

Figure 3

(A) Structural representation of the K63-polyubiquitylated substrate. K63-linked Ub chains (PDB: 2JF5, yellow) [23] and SUMO2 (PDB: 1WM2, blue) [47] (the flexible N-terminus of SUMO2 is represented by a blue ribbon). (B) K63 polyub linked to Ub-SUMO2x4ΔN11 was incubated with the indicated DUBs and the reaction products were fractionated by SDS/PAGE. Reaction products were visualized by Coomassie Blue staining (upper panel), Western blotting with an antibody recognizing ubiquitin (middle panel) and Western blotting with an antibody to SUMO-2 (lower panel). Asterisks (*) denote the DUB in each reaction.
