Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Specifically deubiquitinates histone H2B at 'Lys-120' (H2BK120Ub). H2BK120Ub is a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation and acts as a regulator of mRNA splicing. Deubiquitination is required for efficient cotranscriptional splicing of a large set of exons (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Nucleus {ECO:0000250}.
