About USP7

Cytogenetic location: 16p13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:8,892,097-8,963,906 (from NCBI)

This gene has 23 transcripts (splice variants), 209 orthologues, 71 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 31.0), lymph node (RPKM 24.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the peptidase C19 family, which includes ubiquitinyl hydrolases. This protein deubiquitinates target proteins such as p53 (a tumor suppressor protein) and WASH (essential for endosomal protein recycling), and regulates their activities by counteracting the opposing ubiquitin Ligase activity of proteins such as HDM2 and TRIM27, involved in the respective process. Mutations in this gene have been implicated in a neurodevelopmental disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]
