catalytic activity:Ubiquitin C-terminal thioester + H(2)O = ubiquitin + a thiol.,function:Involved in the ubiquitin-dependent proteolytic pathway in conjunction with the 26S proteasome.,similarity:Belongs to the peptidase C19 family.,similarity:Contains 2 UIM (ubiquitin-interacting motif) repeats.,tissue specificity:Found in most adult and fetal tissues; expression is moderately high in testis, pancreas, kidney, skeletal muscle, liver, lung, placenta, brain, heart, but very low in peripheral blood, colon, small intestine, ovary, prostate, thymus and spleen.,
Cytoplasm .; [Isoform USP25m]: Cytoplasm . Nucleus . Some transient punctuate nuclear location in myotubes during myocyte development. .
Isoform USP25a is found in most adult and fetal tissues; expression is moderately high in testis, pancreas, kidney, skeletal muscle, liver, lung, placenta, brain, heart, but very low in peripheral blood, colon, small intestine, ovary, prostate, thymus and spleen. Isoform USP25b is found in all tissues except heart and skeletal muscle. Isoform USP25m is heart and skeletal muscle specific.
