Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 84101
Gene name Ubiquitin specific peptidase 44
Gene symbol USP44
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
-
Chromosome 12
Chromosome location 12q22
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a protease that functions as a deubiquitinating enzyme. The encoded protein is thought to help regulate the spindle assembly checkpoint by preventing early anaphase onset. This protein specifically deubiquitinates CDC20

Protein name Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 44 (EC 3.4.19.12) (Deubiquitinating enzyme 44) (Ubiquitin thioesterase 44) (Ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 44)
Protein function Deubiquitinase that plays a key regulatory role in the spindle assembly checkpoint or mitotic checkpoint by preventing premature anaphase onset. Acts by specifically mediating deubiquitination of CDC20, a negative regulator of the anaphase promo
