USP32P2


Description

The USP32P2 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 32 pseudogene 2) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 17.

USP32P2 is a gene located on chromosome X. It encodes a protein that is a member of the ubiquitin-specific protease (USP) family. USPs are enzymes that remove ubiquitin from proteins, and this process is important for a variety of cellular functions, including protein degradation, signal transduction, and DNA repair. The USP32P2 gene is located in a region of chromosome X that is associated with mental retardation.

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the ubiquitin-specific protease family. Ubiquitin-specific proteases (USPs) are a large family of deubiquitinating enzymes that play an important role in a wide range of cellular processes, including protein degradation, signal transduction, and DNA repair. This gene is located in a region of chromosome X that is associated with mental retardation. The gene is also transcribed from the opposite strand of the ubiquitin-specific protease 32 (USP32) gene.

USP32P2 is also known as TL132.
