Modification of cellular proteins by ubiquitin is an essential regulatory mechanism controlled by the coordinated action of multiple ubiquitin-conjugating and deubiquitinating enzymes. USP24 belongs to a large family of cysteine proteases that function as deubiquitinating enzymes (Quesada et al., 2004 [PubMed 14715245]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008],catalytic activity:Ubiquitin C-terminal thioester + H(2)O = ubiquitin + a thiol.,function:Involved in the ubiquitin-dependent proteolytic pathway in conjunction with the 26S proteasome.,PTM:Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.,similarity:Belongs to the peptidase C19 family.,similarity:Contains 1 UBA domain.,
