Gene: USP44
Alternate names for this Gene: -
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a protease that functions as a deubiquitinating enzyme. The encoded protein is thought to help regulate the spindle assembly checkpoint by preventing early anaphase onset. This protein specifically deubiquitinates CDC20, which stabilizes the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 12
Location in Chromosome : 12q22
Description of this Gene: ubiquitin specific peptidase 44
Type of Gene: protein-coding
