Anti-UBP4

The protein encoded by this gene is a protease that deubiquitinates target proteins such as ADORA2A and TRIM21. The encoded protein shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm and is involved in maintaining operational fidelity in the endoplasmic reticulum. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Deubiquitinates PDPK1 (PubMed:22347420). Deubiquitinates TRIM21 (PubMed:16316627). Deubiquitinates receptor ADORA2A which increases the amount of functional receptor at the cell surface (PubMed:16339847). Deubiquitinates HAS2 (PubMed:28604766). Deubiquitinates RHEB in response to EGF signaling, promoting mTORC1 signaling (PubMed:30514904). May regulate mRNA splicing through deubiquitination of the U4 spliceosomal protein PRPF3 (PubMed:20595234). This may prevent its recognition by the U5 component PRPF8 thereby destabilizing interactions within the U4/U6.U5 snRNP (PubMed:20595234). May also play a role in the regulation of quality control in the ER (PubMed:16339847). [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:500-2000. Cellular localization: Cytoplasm . Nucleus . Shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm. Exported to the cytoplasm in a CRM1-dependent manner and recycled back to the nucleus via the importin alpha/beta heterodimeric import receptor. The relative amounts found in the nucleus and cytoplasm vary according to the cell type. .
