Vectors for Human USP18

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol USP18
  • Species Human (Homo sapiens)
  • Offical Full Name ubiquitin specific peptidase 18
  • Other Aliases ISG43; PTORCH2; UBP43
  • Other Desigations ubl carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 18; 43 kDa ISG15-specific protease; ISG15-specific-processing protease; ubiquitin specific protease 18; ubl thioesterase 18; ubl thiolesterase 18
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ubiquitin-specific proteases (UBP) family of enzymes that cleave ubiquitin from ubiquitinated protein substrates. It is highly expressed in liver and thymus, and is localized to the nucleus. This protein efficiently cleaves only ISG15 (a ubiquitin-like protein) fusions, and deletion of this gene in mice results in a massive increase of ISG15 conjugates in tissues, indicating that this protein is a major ISG15-specific protease. Mice lacking this gene are also hypersensitive to interferon, suggesting a function of this protein in downregulating interferon responses, independent of its isopeptidase activity towards ISG15.
