Summary

Ubiquitin (MIM 191339) is a highly conserved 76-amino acid protein involved in regulation of intracellular protein breakdown, cell cycle regulation, and stress response. Ubiquitin is released from degraded proteins by disassembly of the polyubiquitin chains, which is mediated by ubiquitin-specific proteases (USPs), such as USP25 (Valero et al., 1999 [PubMed 10644437]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Forensic Context

A study in mice demonstrated that the USP25 is an anti-inflammatory factor indicating severe stage, with its peak expression observed in the H06 (late lethal) group during lethal E. coli-induced sepsis [Zhang et al. DOI:10.1093/jimmun/vkaf140].
