UniProt functional annotation for Q8L6Y1

UniProt code: Q8L6Y1.

Organism: Arabidopsis thaliana (Mouse-ear cress).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Viridiplantae; Streptophyta; Embryophyta; Tracheophyta; Spermatophyta; Magnoliopsida; eudicotyledons; Gunneridae; Pentapetalae; rosids; malvids; Brassicales; Brassicaceae; Camelineae; Arabidopsis.
 
Function: Recognizes and hydrolyzes the peptide bond at the C-terminal Gly of ubiquitin. Involved in the processing of poly-ubiquitin precursors as well as that of ubiquitinated proteins. Involved in seed and embryo development. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11576424, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11788751}.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=Thiol-dependent hydrolysis of ester, thioester, amide, peptide and isopeptide bonds formed by the C-terminal Gly of ubiquitin (a 76- residue protein attached to proteins as an intracellular targeting signal).; EC=3.4.19.12;
Tissue specificity: Constitutively and ubiquitously expressed (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11576424}.
Similarity: Belongs to the peptidase C19 family. {ECO:0000305}.
