description: >-
  USP10 encodes a ubiquitin-specific cysteine deubiquitinase that removes ubiquitin from selected
  substrates including p53/TP53, CFTR, Beclin1-complex components, LC3B, and 40S ribosomal proteins.
  Its direct roles in protein homeostasis include protein deubiquitination, rescue of ubiquitinated
  stalled 40S ribosomal subunits, and regulation of autophagy/stress-granule signaling through LC3B,
  Beclin1, and G3BP contexts.

  qualifier: involved_in
  review:
    summary: USP10 regulates autophagy through Beclin1/Vps34 complexes and LC3B 
      deubiquitination, but this is one substrate pathway of the broader DUB function.
    action: KEEP_AS_NON_CORE
    reason: Keep as non-core. The process is well supported and relevant to the PN ATG8 
      context, but the molecular function should remain protein deubiquitination rather 
      than a generic autophagy-regulator identity.

    label: cysteine-type deubiquitinase activity
  description: USP10 is a ubiquitin-specific cysteine deubiquitinase that removes 
    ubiquitin from protein substrates. This broad catalytic function underlies its p53, 
    CFTR, LC3B/Beclin1, NF-kappaB, MAVS, and ribosome-quality-control activities.

proposed_new_terms:
- proposed_name: ATG8-family protein deubiquitination
  proposed_definition: A protein deubiquitination process in which ubiquitin is removed 
    from an ATG8-family protein, thereby modulating ATG8 protein stability, lipidated 
    ATG8 abundance, or autophagic activity.
  justification: USP10 directly deubiquitinates LC3B and regulates LC3B 
    abundance/autophagic activity, but current GOA can only capture broad protein 
    deubiquitination or regulation of autophagy.

- proposed_name: 40S ribosomal protein deubiquitination during ribosome quality control
  proposed_definition: A monoubiquitinated protein deubiquitination process in which 
    ubiquitin is removed from proteins of a cytosolic 40S ribosomal subunit during 
    ribosome-associated quality control, preventing or reversing programmed degradation 
    of the modified 40S subunit.
  justification: USP10 removes ubiquitin from RPS2/uS5, RPS3/uS3, and RPS10/eS10 in 
    stalled or compromised 40S ribosomal-subunit contexts. Existing GO terms capture 
    either broad monoubiquitinated protein deubiquitination or rescue of stalled 
    cytosolic ribosome, but not the substrate-specific deubiquitination event.

suggested_questions:

    deubiquitination term for LC3/ATG8 substrate deubiquitination?
  experts:
  - GO autophagy editors
  - Juan S. Bonifacino
  - Ai Yamamoto
- question: Should 40S ribosomal protein deubiquitination during ribosome quality 
    control be represented as a substrate-specific child of monoubiquitinated protein 
    deubiquitination?
  experts:
  - Eric J. Bennett
  - Judith Frydman
  - GO proteostasis editors
- question: Which USP10 substrate contexts should remain non-core gene-level annotations
    versus annotation extensions on the core deubiquitinase activity?
  experts:
  - GO ubiquitin editors
  - GO-CAM editors
suggested_experiments:
- description: Map endogenous LC3A/LC3B/LC3C ubiquitination sites in USP10 knockout and 
    catalytic-rescue cells, then test whether catalytically inactive USP10 fails to 
    restore LC3 abundance and autophagy flux.
  experiment_type: substrate mapping and catalytic rescue assay
  hypothesis: USP10 directly deubiquitinates LC3-family ATG8 proteins to preserve LC3 
    abundance and stress-induced autophagy.
- description: Use ribosome profiling, ribosomal-protein ubiquitinomics, and 40S 
    turnover assays in USP10 catalytic mutants to separate elongation RQC from 
    initiation RQC substrates.
  experiment_type: ribosome quality-control ubiquitinomics
  hypothesis: USP10 rescues distinct classes of ubiquitinated 40S subunits by removing 
    substrate-specific mono-ubiquitin marks from RPS2/RPS3/RPS10.
- description: Build substrate-specific USP10 GO-CAM models for p53, CFTR, LC3B, 
    TRAF6/NEMO, MAVS, and 40S ribosomal proteins and compare which contexts are 
    conserved across cell types.
  experiment_type: curation-focused comparative substrate model
  hypothesis: Most USP10 biological-process annotations are substrate-context outputs of
    a single core DUB activity rather than independent core functions.
