description | UBP5, also known as isopeptidase T or USP5, is a deubiquitinating enzyme largely responsible for the disassembly of the majority of unanchored polyubiquitin in the cell []. Zinc is required for its catalytic activity. UBP5 contains four ubiquitin (Ub)-binding sites including an N-terminal zinc finger (Znf) domain, a catalytic ubiquitin-specific processing protease (UBP) domain (catalytic C-box and H-box), and two ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domains. Znf domain binds the proximal ubiquitin. UBP domain forms the active site. UBA domains are involved in binding linear or K48-linked polyubiquitin [, ]. This entry represents the UBA1 domain. |
