Background
USP38, KIAA1891, Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 38, Deubiquitinating enzyme 38, HP43.8KD, Ubiquitin thioesterase 38, Ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 38The 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. USP38 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 38), also known as HP43. KD, is a 1,042 amino acid deubiquitinating enzyme that participates in the Ub pathway. A member of the peptidase C19 family, the catalytic activity of USP38 involves a combination of the ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal thiolester and water to produce ubiquitin and a thiol. USP38 is highly expressed in skeletal muscle and adrenal gland.
