InnateDB Annotation
Summary
USP4 is a potent negative regulator of TLR/IL1Rsignalling through deubiquitination of TRAF6 to prevent activation of inflammatory responses.
InnateDB Annotation from Orthologs
Summary
[Mus musculus] Usp4 is a potent negative regulator of Tlr/Il1r-signalling through deubiquitination of Traf6 to prevent the activation of inflammatory responses.
Entrez Gene
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a protease that deubiquitinates target proteins such as ADORA2A and TRIM21. The encoded protein shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm and is involved in maintaining operational fidelity in the endoplasmic reticulum. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]
