Description: Homo sapiens ubiquitin specific peptidase 27, X-linked (USP27X), mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_001145073): This gene encodes a member of the peptidase protein family. The encoded protein functions as a deubiquitinase that is involved in upregulation of the pro-apoptotic Bim protein. This protein may act as a tumor suppressor by increasing levels of Bim to counteract anti-apoptotic signals in cancer cells. Mutations in this gene have been associated with X-linked cognitive disability. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2016]. Sequence Note: The RefSeq transcript was derived from the reference genome assembly. The genomic coordinates were determined from alignments.

ID:UBP27_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 27; EC=3.4.19.12; AltName: Full=Deubiquitinating enzyme 27; AltName: Full=Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 22-like; AltName: Full=Ubiquitin thioesterase 27; AltName: Full=Ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 27; AltName: Full=X-linked ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 27; CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Thiol-dependent hydrolysis of ester, thioester, amide, peptide and isopeptide bonds formed by the C- terminal Gly of ubiquitin (a 76-residue protein attached to proteins as an intracellular targeting signal). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peptidase C19 family. CAUTION: Although strongly related to USP22, which deubiquitinates histones, lacks the N-terminal UBP-type zinc finger, suggesting it does not have the ability to deubiquitinate histones.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
