Deubiquitinases (DUBs) are essential for the maintenance of protein homeostasis and assembly of proteins into functional complexes. Despite growing interest in DUBs biological functions, the roles of DUBs in regulating intestinal stem cells (ISCs) and gut homeostasis remain largely unknown. Here, we perform an in vivo RNAi screen through induced knock-down of DUBs expression in adult midgut ISCs and enteroblasts (EBs) to identify DUB regulators of intestinal homeostasis in Drosophila. We screen 43 DUBs and identify 8 DUBs that are required for ISCs homeostasis. Knocking-down of usp1, CG7857, usp5, rpn8, usp10 and csn5 decreases the number of ISCs/EBs, while knocking-down of CG4968 and usp8 increases the number of ISCs/EBs. Moreover, knock-down of usp1, CG4968, CG7857, or rpn8 in ISCs/EBs disrupts the intestinal barrier integrity and shortens the lifespan, indicating the requirement of these DUBs for the maintenance of gut homeostasis. Furthermore, we provide evidences that USP1 mediates ISC lineage differentiation via modulating the Notch signaling activity. Our study identifies, for the first time, the deubiquitinases required for the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis in Drosophila, and provide new insights into the functional links between the DUBs and intestinal homeostasis.
