Protein name Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 8 (EC 3.4.19.12) (Deubiquitinating enzyme 8) (Ubiquitin isopeptidase Y) (hUBPy) (Ubiquitin thioesterase 8) (Ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 8)
Protein function Hydrolase that can remove conjugated ubiquitin from proteins and therefore plays an important regulatory role at the level of protein turnover by preventing degradation. Converts both 'Lys-48' an 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin chains. Catalytic activ
