Effective bone formation relies on osteoblast differentiation, a process subject to intricate post-translational regulation. Ubiquitin-specific proteases (USPs) repress protein degradation mediated by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Several USPs have been documented to regulate osteoblast differentiation, but whether other USPs are involved in this process remains elusive.
