Usp49 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable histone binding activity and peptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in mRNA splicing, via spliceosome and negative regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B signal transduction. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in cerebral cortex subventricular zone; cerebral cortex ventricular layer; and cortical plate. Orthologous to human USP49 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 49). [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 Usp49 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
