| Background Descriptions | The ubiquitin (Ub) pathway involves three sequential enzymatic steps that facilitate the conjugation of Ub and Ub-like molecules to specific protein substrates. Through the use of a wide range of enzymes that can add or remove ubiquitin, the Ub pathway controls many intracellular processes such as signal transduction, transcriptional activation and cell cycle progression. USP3 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 3), also known as UBP or SIH003, is a 520 amino acid protein that contains one UBP-type zinc finger and belongs to the peptidase C19 family. Expressed ubiquitously with highest levels present in pancreas, USP3 catalyzes the conversion of a ubiquitin C-terminal thioester to a free ubiquitin and a thiol. The gene encoding USP3 maps to human chromosome 15, which houses over 700 genes and comprises nearly 3% of the human genome. |

| Function | Deubiquitinase that plays a role in several cellular processes including transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression or innate immunity. In response to DNA damage, deubiquitinates monoubiquitinated target proteins such as histone H2A and H2AX and thereby counteracts RNF168- and RNF8-mediated ubiquitination. In turn, participates in the recruitment of DNA damage repair factors to DNA break sites (PubMed:24196443). Required for proper progression through S phase and subsequent mitotic entry (PubMed:17980597). Acts as a positive regulator of TP53 by deubiquitinating and stabilizing it to promote normal cell proliferation and transformation (PubMed:28807825). Participates in establishing tolerance innate immune memory through non-transcriptional feedback. Mechanistically, negatively regulates TLR-induced NF-kappa-B signaling by targeting and removing the 'Lys- 63'-linked polyubiquitin chains on MYD88 (PubMed:37971847). Negatively regulates the activation of type I interferon signaling by mediating 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains on RIGI and IFIH1 (PubMed:24366338). Also deubiquinates ASC/PYCARD, the central adapter mediating the assembly and activation of most inflammasomes, and thereby promotes inflammasome activation (PubMed:36050480). |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Localizes preferentially with monoubiquitinated H2A to chromatin (PubMed:17980597). Upon NF-kappa-B signaling activation, exits the nucleus (PubMed:37971847) |
| Tissue Location | Expressed in all tissues examined, with strongest expression in pancreas |

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
