Human Gene USP5 (ENST00000229268.13) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens ubiquitin specific peptidase 5 (USP5), transcript variant 12, non-coding RNA. (from RefSeq NR_168455) RefSeq Summary (NM_001098536): Ubiquitin (see MIM 191339)-dependent proteolysis is a complex pathway of protein metabolism implicated in such diverse cellular functions as maintenance of chromatin structure, receptor function, and degradation of abnormal proteins. A late step of the process involves disassembly of the polyubiquitin chains on degraded proteins into ubiquitin monomers. USP5 disassembles branched polyubiquitin chains by a sequential exo mechanism, starting at the proximal end of the chain (Wilkinson et al., 1995 [PubMed 7578059]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2010]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000229268.13 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000111667.14 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr12:6,852,150-6,866,632 Size: 14,483 Total Exon Count: 20 Strand: + Coding Region Position: hg38 chr12:6,852,180-6,866,077 Size: 13,898 Coding Exon Count: 20
ID:UBP5_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 5; EC=3.4.19.12; AltName: Full=Deubiquitinating enzyme 5; AltName: Full=Isopeptidase T; AltName: Full=Ubiquitin thioesterase 5; AltName: Full=Ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 5; FUNCTION: Cleaves linear and branched multiubiquitin polymers with a marked preference for branched polymers. Involved in unanchored 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin disassembly. Binds linear and 'Lys- 63'-linked polyubiquitin with a lower affinity. Knock-down of USP5 causes the accumulation of p53/TP53 and an increase in p53/TP53 transcriptional activity because the unanchored polyubiquitin that accumulates is able to compete with ubiquitinated p53/TP53 but not with MDM2 for proteasomal recognition. 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). COFACTOR: Binds 1 zinc ion. SUBUNIT: Interacts with TRIML1 (By similarity). INTERACTION: O75528:TADA3; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-741277, EBI-473249; DOMAIN: The UBP-type zinc finger domain interacts selectively with an unmodified C-terminus of the proximal ubiquitin. Both UBA domains are involved in polyubiquitin recognition. MISCELLANEOUS: The UBP-type zinc finger domain crystallizes as a dimer linked by a disulfide bond between the Cys-195 residues of both molecules, but there is no evidence that the full-length USP5 exists as a dimer. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peptidase C19 family. SIMILARITY: Contains 2 UBA domains. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 UBP-type zinc finger.
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.
