Summary
Enables ubiquitin-like protein-specific protease activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including nuclear speck organization; positive regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome complex assembly; and positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including dendritic spine; midbody; and postsynaptic density. Predicted to be extrinsic component of endosome membrane and extrinsic component of plasma membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
