USP11

Protein ubiquitination controls many intracellular processes, including cell cycle progression, transcriptional;activation, and signal transduction. This dynamic process, involving ubiquitin conjugating enzymes and;deubiquitinating enzymes, adds and removes ubiquitin. Deubiquitinating enzymes are cysteine proteases that;specifically cleave ubiquitin from ubiquitin-conjugated protein substrates. This gene encodes a deubiquitinating;enzyme which lies in a gene cluster on chromosome Xp11.23.
