    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION
    basic FUNCTION
  • ubiquitin specific protease
  • cleaving a ubiquitin-proline bond
  • only the second known ubiquitin-specific protease capable of efficiently cleaving a ubiquitin-proline bond (Sloper-Mould 1999)
  • implicated as a novel chromatin modifier in the maintenance of genome integrity (Nicassio 2007)
