Function

FUNCTION: Negative regulator of the non-canonical NF-kappa-B pathway that acts by mediating deubiquitination of TRAF3, an inhibitor of the NF-kappa-B pathway, thereby acting as a negative regulator of B-cell responses. In response to non-canonical NF- kappa-B stimuli, deubiquitinates 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin chains of TRAF3, preventing TRAF3 proteolysis and over-activation of non-canonical NF-kappa-B. Negatively regulates mucosal immunity against infections (By similarity). Deubiquitinates ZAP70, and thereby regulates T cell receptor (TCR) signaling that leads to the activation of NF-kappa-B (PubMed:26903241). Plays a role in T cell homeostasis and is required for normal T cell responses, including production of IFNG and IL2 (By similarity). Mediates deubiquitination of EGFR (PubMed:22179831). Has deubiquitinating activity toward 'Lys-11', 'Lys-48' and 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains (PubMed:27732584). Has a much higher catalytic rate with 'Lys-11'-linked polyubiquitin chains (in vitro); however the physiological significance of these data are unsure (PubMed:27732584). Hydrolyzes both linear and branched forms of polyubiquitin. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:B2RUR8, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11463333, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12682062, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18178551, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20622874, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22179831, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23827681, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27732584}.;
