| Description : |
This gene encodes a member of the ubiquitin-specific processing (UBP) family of proteases that is a deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) with His and Cys domains. This protein is located in the cytoplasm and cleaves the ubiquitin moiety from ubiquitin-fused precursors and ubiquitinylated proteins. Mice with a mutation that results in reduced expression of the ortholog of this protein are retarded for growth, develop severe tremors by 2 to 3 weeks of age followed by hindlimb paralysis and death by 6 to 10 weeks of age. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. |
| Bio-activity : |
Recombinant Human USP14 is a Ubiquitin-specific deconjugating enzyme. The activity of Recombinant Human USP14 was measured at 2.0 RFU/min/μg using an enzyme concentration of 18 μM and a Ub-AMC concentration of 4 μM in 100 mM HEPES, pH 8.5, 10 mM DTT, and 5% Glycerol at 25 degreesC. USP14 activity is greatly stimulated in the presence of 19S proteasome. |
