| Background: |
catalytic activity:Ubiquitin C-terminal thioester + H(2)O = ubiquitin + a thiol.,caution:The RS447 megasatellite DNA is a highly polymorphic conserved tandem repetitive sequence which contains a copy of USP17. It is present with an interindividual variation in copy number and between 20 to 103 copies can be found both on chromosome 4 and chromosome 8.,function:Functions in cell apoptosis. Cleaves ubiquitin fusion protein substrates.,similarity:Belongs to the peptidase C19 family. USP17 subfamily., |
