HEK NICD AP-MS - Notch signaling is a core patterning module for vascular morphogenesis, which co-determines the sprouting behaviour of endothelial cells (ECs)
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Notch signaling is a core patterning module for vascular morphogenesis, which co-determines the sprouting behaviour of endothelial cells (ECs). Tight quantitative and temporal control of Notch activity is essential for vascular development, yet the details of Notch regulation in ECs are incompletely understood. We found that ubiquitin-specific peptidase 10 (USP10) interacted with the NOTCH1 intracellular domain (NICD1) to slow the ubiquitin-dependent turnover of this short-lived form of the activated NOTCH1 receptor. Accordingly, inactivation of USP10 reduced NICD1 abundance and stability, and diminished Notch-induced target gene expression in ECs. In mice, loss of endothelial Usp10 increased vessel sprouting and partially restored the patterning defects caused by ectopic expression of NICD1. Thus, USP10 functions as an NICD1 deubiquitinase, which fine-tunes endothelial Notch responses during angiogenic sprouting.
