Identification of otubain 1 as a novel substrate for the <i>Yersinia</i> protein kinase using chemical genetics and mass spectrometry
9 Dec 2005
Abstract excerpt
Yersinia encodes a protein kinase, YpkA, which disrupts the actin cytoskeleton. Using an approach termed chemical genetics, we identified a 36-kDa substrate for YpkA in both J774 lysates and bovine brain cytosol. Mass spectrometry analysis identified this substrate as FLJ20113, an open reading frame that corresponds to otubain 1, a deubiquitinating enzyme implicated in immune cell clonal anergy. We demonstrate...
