The KIAA0891 clone containing the coding region of human USP19 was kindly donated by Dr. Nagase at the KAZUSA Institute in Japan [40 (link)]. The coding region of human USP19 was subcloned into pcDNA3-Myc (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Myc-tagged USP19 (C506S) mutant was generated by site-directed mutagenesis. Using a commercial clone (IMAGE clone: 3350035) containing the coding region of Coro2A, we subcloned Coro2A into a pCS4-Flag vector (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). His-tagged ubiquitin was cloned as previously described [41 (link)]. Different concentrations of USP19 siRNA (0.5, 1 and 1.5 nmol) were transfected into cells by using an Opti-MEM and RNAimax (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) mixture according to the manufacturer's instructions. The USP19 sense siRNA sequences were; 5′-GGA GGA GAU GGC AGU GGC A-3′. The anti-sense siRNA sequences were; 5′-UGC CAC UGC CAU CUC CUC C-3′ (UbiProtein Corp, Seongnam, Korea).
