Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a chromatin-associated histone 2A and 2B deubiquitinating enzyme that negatively regulates the DNA damage response. Mice deficient for this enzyme have reduced hematopoietic stem cell reserves, demonstrating a requirement in hematopoietic stem cell homeostasis. In addition, knock down of protein levels results in spontaneous tumor development and shortened lifespan, consistent with a function in preserving chromosomal integrity. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
