Research Backgrounds

Function:

Involved in the regulation of inflammatory response to interferon type 1. Can efficiently cleave only ISG15 fusions including native ISG15 conjugates linked via isopeptide bonds. Necessary to maintain a critical cellular balance of ISG15-conjugated proteins in both healthy and stressed organisms.

Has enzymatic activity similar to isoform 1 and interferes with type I interferon signaling. Major deISGylation enzyme for nuclear proteins.
