UBA1 domain found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 14 (scUBP14) and similar proteins
scUBP14, also called deubiquitinating enzyme 14, glucose-induced degradation protein 6, ubiquitin thioesterase 14, or ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 14, is the yeast ortholog of human Isopeptidase T (USP5), a deubiquitinating enzyme known to bind the 29-linked polyubiquitin chains. scUBP14 has been identified as a K29-linked polyubiquitin binding protein as well. It is involved in K29-linked polyubiquitin metabolism by binding to the 29-linked Ub4 resin and serving as an internal positive control in budding yeast. Members in this family contain two tandem ubiquitin-association (UBA) domains. This model corresponds to the UBA1 domain.
