Usp40

Predicted to enable cysteine-type deubiquitinase activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of protein stability. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Orthologous to human USP40 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 40). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

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 rat Usp40 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
