USP46

protein-coding

ubiquitin specific peptidase 46, the group of Ubiquitin specific peptidases

Gene summary

Modification of cellular proteins by ubiquitin is an essential regulatory mechanism controlled by the coordinated action of multiple ubiquitin-conjugating and deubiquitinating enzymes. USP46 belongs to a large family of cysteine proteases that function as deubiquitinating enzymes (Quesada et al., 2004 [PubMed 14715245]).[supplied by OMIM, Jun 2009]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_022832.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Deubiquitinating enzyme that plays a role in behavior, possibly by regulating GABA action. May act by mediating the deubiquitination of GAD1/GAD67 (By similarity). Has almost no deubiquitinating activity by itself and requires the interaction with WDR48 to have a high activity (PubMed:19075014, PubMed:26388029). Not involved in deubiquitination of monoubiquitinated FANCD2 (PubMed:19075014). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P62069, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19075014, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26388029}.;
