UBA domain found in ubiquitin-associated and SH3 domain-containing protein B (UBS3B) and similar proteins UBS3B, or Cbl-interacting protein p70, suppressor of T-cell receptor signaling 1 (Sts-1), T-cell ubiquitin ligand 2 (TULA-2), or tyrosine-protein phosphatase STS1/TULA2, is ubiquitously expressed in mammalian tissues in a variety of cell types. It exhibits high phosphatase activity, but demonstrates no proapoptotic activity. It negatively regulates the tyrosine kinase Zap-70 activation and T cell receptor (TCR) signaling pathways that modulate T cell activation. Moreover, UBS3B acts as a Cbl- and ubiquitin-interacting protein that inhibits endocytosis of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and platelet-derived growth factor receptor.
