Description

USP17L1 is a member of the ubiquitin-specific protease (USP) family that functions as a deubiquitinating enzyme. It removes ubiquitin from target proteins, thereby regulating protein stability and signaling pathways. USP17L1 is involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis, and immune responses. Its expression is altered in various cancers, suggesting a role in tumorigenesis.

Protein Summary

USP17L1 encodes a 530-amino acid protein containing a catalytic domain characteristic of ubiquitin-specific proteases. It cleaves ubiquitin from target proteins, influencing their stability and function. The protein is localized in the cytoplasm and nucleus, and its activity is implicated in cell cycle regulation and immune signaling.
