    Summary
    Enables deubiquitinase activity. Involved in cellular response to insulin stimulus; positive regulation of fat cell differentiation; and protein catabolic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including adult walking behavior; eating behavior; and protein deubiquitination. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including embryo ectoderm; genitourinary system; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver. Orthologous to human UCHL3 (ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
