| Primary Identifier | MGI:1355274 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 14 | NCBI Gene Number | 50933 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables deubiquitinase activity. Involved in cellular response to insulin stimulus; positive regulation of fat cell differentiation; and protein catabolic process. Acts upstream of or within adult walking behavior; eating behavior; and retina development in camera-type eye. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including embryo ectoderm; genitourinary system; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver. Orthologous to human UCHL3 (ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L3). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null animals show degeneration in dorsal root ganglia. Mice display postnatal progressive retinal degeneration and muscular degeneration. In combination with a knockout of ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1, neurological effects of each are accelerated, mice are dysphagic and die younger. [provided by MGI curators] |
