Usp13 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including BAT3 complex binding activity; peptidase activity; and proteasome binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including maintenance of unfolded protein; regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and regulation of catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein deubiquitination and protein stabilization. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Orthologous to human USP13 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 13).

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 rat 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.
