| UniProt code: Q9XVR6. |
| Organism: | Caenorhabditis elegans. | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Ecdysozoa; Nematoda; Chromadorea; Rhabditida; Rhabditina; Rhabditomorpha; Rhabditoidea; Rhabditidae; Peloderinae; Caenorhabditis. | |
| Function: | Hydrolase that can remove conjugated ubiquitin from proteins and plays an important regulatory role at the level of protein turnover by preventing degradation. Specifically cleaves 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19211026}. | |
| 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; Evidence={ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q96DC9}; | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the peptidase C65 family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
