geneOn this page
Summary
USP3 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 3, HGNC:12626) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 15q22.31, encoding Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 3 (Q9Y6I4). Deubiquitinase that plays a role in several cellular processes including transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression or innate immunity.
Enables deubiquitinase activity and histone binding activity. Involved in DNA repair and DNA repair-dependent chromatin remodeling. Located in several cellular components, including Flemming body; cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein granule; and nucleoplasm.

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. Required for proper progression through S phase and subsequent mitotic entry. Acts as a positive regulator of TP53 by deubiquitinating and stabilizing it to promote normal cell proliferation and transformation. 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. Negatively regulates the activation of type I interferon signaling by mediating ‘Lys-63’-linked polyubiquitin chains on RIGI and IFIH1. Also deubiquitinates ASC/PYCARD, the central adapter mediating the assembly and activation of most inflammasomes, and thereby promotes inflammasome activation.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts (via UBP-type domain) with H2A; the interaction is less efficient than with monoubiquitinated H2A.
Subcellular location. Nucleus. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in all tissues examined, with strongest expression in pancreas.
Domain organisation. Both protease activity and an intact zinc finger are required for H2A monodeubiquitination.
Similarity. Belongs to the peptidase C19 family. USP3 subfamily.
