Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable cysteine-type deubiquitinase activity and ubiquitin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in protein catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within proteolysis. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; jaw; sensory organ; submandibular gland primordium; and thymus primordium. Orthologous to human UCHL3 (ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L3).
