    basic FUNCTION
  • inhibits both clathrin-dependent and clathrin-independent endocytic pathways by functionally sequestering dynamin via the SH3 domain of UBASH3A binding proline-rich sequences in dynamin
  • facilitates T-cell apoptosis independent of either T-cell receptor/CD3-mediated signaling or caspase activity
  • implicated in the regulation of signaling mediated by protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs)
  • with UBASH3B, may exert opposite effects on PTK-mediated signaling
  • function as critical negative regulators of TCR signaling
  • instrumental in down-modulating proteins that are dually modified by both protein tyrosine phosphorylation and ubiquitination
  • its phosphatase activity is key for its ability to negatively regulate the signaling of membrane-bound receptors including TCR and the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)
  • might function as an acid-dependent phosphatase
  • UBASH3A, UBASH3B function as critical negative regulators of TCR signaling
  • suppressor of T-cell receptor signaling, underscoring antigen presentation to T-cells as a critical shared mechanism of diseases pathogenesis
  • UBASH3A can be considered as a common genetic factor in autoimmune diseases
  • suppress T-cell-driven inflammatory responses
  • may involve in the pathogenesis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
  • pivotal role of UBASH3A/UBASH3B in regulating hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell fitness
  • UBASH3A attenuates the NFKB1 signal transduction upon T-cell receptor (TCR) stimulation by specifically suppressing the activation of the IKB kinase complex
  • is a negative regulator of NFKB1 signaling
  • CRKL, UBASH3A, and AIFM3 were detected in all phases of kidney development which implies their role as renal development control genes

    protein
  • associated with CBL and ubiquitylated proteins and has been implicated in the regulation of signaling mediated by protein-tyrosine kinases
  • binds to the apoptosis-inducing protein AIFM1, previously shown to function as a key factor of caspase-independent apoptosis
  • bind to ABCE1, a host factor of HIV-1 assembly, and inhibit HIV-1 biogenesis in a UBA-dependent fashion
  • regulates the level of tyrosine phosphorylation on targets within T cells, among them the critical T cell tyrosine kinase ZAP70
  • interactions of UBASH3A with nondegradative polyubiquitin chains, NR2C2 and IKBKG, suggesting that UBASH3A regulates the NFKB1 signaling pathway by an ubiquitin-dependent mechanism
