Usp16 - ubiquitin specific peptidase 16 Gene

Also Known as UBPM; 1200004E02Rik; 2810483I07Rik; 6330514E22Rik

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 74112

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including cysteine-type peptidase activity; ubiquitin binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in monoubiquitinated histone H2A deubiquitination and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human USP16 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 16). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
