Otulin Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables cysteine-type deubiquitinase activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of NF-kappaB transcription factor activity; protein linear deubiquitination; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in cytoplasm. Part of LUBAC complex. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; gut; and hemolymphoid system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in immunodeficiency 107 and otulipenia. Orthologous to human OTULIN (OTU deubiquitinase with linear linkage specificity).

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 Otulin often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
