USP35 is a DUB for Aurora B. a HEK293T cells were transfected with HA-Aurora B alone or in combination with Flag-USP35. The interaction between Flag-USP35 and HA-Aurora B was detected by immunoblotting after immunoprecipitation with an anti-Flag antibody. TCL, total cell lysates. b HEK293T cells were transfected with Flag-USP35 alone or in combination with HA-Aurora B. The interaction between Flag-USP35 and HA-Aurora B was detected by immunoblotting after immunoprecipitation with an anti-HA antibody. c The interaction between endogenous USP35 and Aurora B was detected by immunoblotting after immunoprecipitation with an anti-Aurora B antibody. d HEK293T cells transfected with His-ubiquitin alone or in combination with HA-Aurora B, Flag-USP35 or Flag-USP35C450A were synchronized by a treatment with 100 ng/mL nocodazole (NOC) for 18 h and then treated with the proteasome inhibitor MG132 for 4 h. Aurora B ubiquitination was observed using a Ni-NTA-mediated pulldown assay. e HeLa cells transfected with CONi or USP35i were synchronized in prometaphase by a treatment with 100 ng/mL NOC for 18 h. The cell lysates were immunoblotted using the indicated antibodies. f HeLa cells were transfected with USP35i-#1 or USP35i-#2 alone or in combination with HA-Aurora B. Cells showing several defects were counted after immunofluorescence staining with β-tubulin Cy3 antibody. One-hundred cells per group were examined from three independent experiments. The data in a part f represent the mean ± SD (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.005, t-test)
