Otud4 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables K63-linked deubiquitinase activity. Involved in negative regulation of interleukin-1-mediated signaling pathway; negative regulation of toll-like receptor signaling pathway; and protein K63-linked deubiquitination. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; gut; and hemolymphoid system. Orthologous to human OTUD4 (OTU deubiquitinase 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Otud4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
