The deubiquitinating enzyme USP1 contains highly conserved motifs forming its catalytic center. Recently, the COSMIC mutation database identified a mutation in USP1 at Asp-199 in endometrial cancer. Here, we investigated the role of Asp-199 for USP1 function. The mutation of aspartic acid to alanine (D199A) resulted in failure of USP1 to undergo autocleavage and form a complex with ubiquitin, indicating D199A Usp1 is catalytically inactive. The D199A mutation did not affect the interaction with Uaf1. Moreover, D199A Usp1 had def
