Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody to USP10

Ubiquitin is a highly conserved protein that is covalently linked to other proteins to regulate their function and degradation. This gene encodes a member of the ubiquitin~specific protease family of cysteine proteases. The enzyme specifically cleaves ubiquitin from ubiquitin~conjugated protein substrates. The protein is found in the nucleus and cytoplasm. It functions as a co~factor of the DNA~bound androgen receptor complex, and is inhibited by a protein in the Ras~GTPase pathway. The human genome contains several pseudogenes similar to this gene. Several transcript variants, some protein~coding and others not protein~coding, have been found for this gene.
