ZUP1 - zinc finger containing ubiquitin peptidase 1 Gene
Also Known as DUB; ZUFSP; C6orf113
Species: Homo sapiens
About ZUP1
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 133 orthologues and 6 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in duodenum (RPKM 4.7), bone marrow (RPKM 4.6) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a protein containing zinc finger motifs and a cysteine peptidase domain. The encoded protein functions as a K63-specific de-ubiquitinating enzyme that specifically cleaves long K63-linked polyubiquitin chains in the middle of a chain (i.e. "endo cleavage) rather than by removing the terminal ubiquitin from a chain. This enzyme is thought to be involved in the regulation of DNA repair by cleaving K63-linked ubiquitin chains at repair foci. This protein is related to proteases for the ubiquitin-like modifiers Ufm1 (ubiquitin fold modifier 1) and Atg8/Gabarapl2, but does not have any activity on these modifiers.
