What's a GeneRIF?

An excess level of Msn2 impairs endocytic degradation of Gnp1 through dysfunction of Ubp6 and other deubiquitinating enzymes.
Title: Effect of the deubiquitination enzyme gene UBP6 on the stress-responsive transcription factor Msn2-mediated control of the amino acid permease Gnp1 in yeast.
Electron microscopy analyses reveal that ubiquitin-bound Ubp6 contacts the N ring and AAA+ ring of the ATPase hexamer and is in proximity to the deubiquitinase Rpn11 in the proteasome.
Title: Ubp6 deubiquitinase controls conformational dynamics and substrate degradation of the 26S proteasome.
Fluorescently labeled tetra-Ub chains revealed endo-chain preference for Ubp6 acting on Lys(48) and random action for Rpn11.
Title: Disassembly of Lys11 and mixed linkage polyubiquitin conjugates provides insights into function of proteasomal deubiquitinases Rpn11 and Ubp6.
Results demonstrate that Sem1p and Ubp6p maintain telomeric heterochromatin structure through modulation of histone covalent modifications and association of silencing factors independently of the proteolytic function of the proteasome.
Title: Sem1p and Ubp6p orchestrate telomeric silencing by modulating histone H2B ubiquitination and H3 acetylation.
Results suggest that Ubp6 regulates both the nature and magnitude of proteasome activity.
Title: Deubiquitinating enzyme Ubp6 functions noncatalytically to delay proteasomal degradation.

Preferred Names: ubiquitin-specific protease UBP6

NP_116665.1

EC 3.4.19.12

Ubiquitin-specific protease; situated in the base subcomplex of the 26S proteasome, releases free ubiquitin from branched polyubiquitin chains en bloc, rather than from the distal tip of the chain; negatively regulates degradation of ubiquitinated proteins by the proteasome; works in opposition to Hul5p polyubiquitin elongation activity; mutant has aneuploidy tolerance; human homolog UBP14 complements yeast null mutant
