Protein Coding Gene : Usp8 ubiquitin specific peptidase 8

Primary Identifier  MGI:1934029 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  2 NCBI Gene Number  84092
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Enables cysteine-type deubiquitinase activity. Involved in endosome organization. Acts upstream of or within Ras protein signal transduction. Located in cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; cytosol; and midbody. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in ACTH-secreting pituitary adenoma. Orthologous to human USP8 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 8).
PHENOTYPE: Embryos homozygous for a knock-out allele appear severely growth retarded and disorganized at E9.5 and die in utero due to ventral-folding defects. [provided by MGI curators]
