Usp13 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including BAT3 complex binding activity; peptidase activity; and proteasome binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including protein K63-linked deubiquitination; protein stabilization; and regulation of catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein K29-linked deubiquitination and protein K6-linked deubiquitination. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Orthologous to human USP13 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 13). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Usp13 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
