RT "Deubiquitylation of histone H2A activates transcriptional initiation via
RT trans-histone cross-talk with H3K4 di- and trimethylation.";
RL Genes Dev. 22:37-49(2008).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Deubiquitinates histone H2A, a specific tag for epigenetic
CC transcriptional repression, thereby acting as a coactivator.
CC Deubiquitination of histone H2A releaves the repression of di- and
CC trimethylation of histone H3 at 'Lys-4', resulting in regulation of
CC transcriptional initiation. Regulates gene expression via histone H2A
CC deubiquitination. Also capable of removing NEDD8 from NEDD8 conjugates
CC but has no effect on Sentrin-1 conjugates. Deubiquitinates BAZ2A/TIP5
CC leading to its stabilization (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9UK80, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18172164}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=Thiol-dependent hydrolysis of ester, thioester, amide, peptide
CC and isopeptide bonds formed by the C-terminal Gly of ubiquitin (a 76-
CC residue protein attached to proteins as an intracellular targeting
CC signal).; EC=3.4.19.12; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:18172164};
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with BEND3 and BAZ2A/TIP5.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9UK80}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Nucleus {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peptidase C19 family. USP21 subfamily.
CC {ECO:0000305}.
