UFM1 specific peptidase 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the UFSP2 gene. [5]

Contents

Function

This gene encodes a highly conserved cysteine protease. The protein cleaves two C-terminal residues from ubiquitin-fold modifier 1, a ubiquitin-like post-translational modifier protein. Activation of ubiquitin-fold modifier 1 by the encoded protein exposes a C-terminal glycine residue that allows interaction with other proteins and transfer to its target protein. An allelic variant of this gene has been associated with Beukes hip dysplasia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016].

USP18 protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

Ubiquitin specific peptidase 18 (USP18), also known as UBP43, is an isopeptidase that in human is encoded by the USP18 gene. USP18 is a member of the deubiquitinating protease family of enzymes. It is thought to remove ISG15 adducts from a broad range of protein substrates, a process known as deISGylation. In mice, deletion of this enzyme results in increased inflammatory response to type I interferons, suggesting that USP18 may, in part, regulate interferon responsiveness.

UBE2Z protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

Ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2 Z (UBE2Z), also known as UBA6-specific E2 enzyme 1 (USE1), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the UBE2Z gene on chromosome 17. It is ubiquitously expressed in many tissues and cell types. UBE2Z is an E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme and participates in the second step of protein ubiquitination during proteolysis. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) revealed the UBE2Z gene to be associated with chronic kidney disease. The UBE2Z gene also contains one of 27 SNPs associated with increased risk of coronary artery disease.
