[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/UCHL1_HUMAN UCHL1_HUMAN] Ubiquitin-protein hydrolase involved both in the processing of ubiquitin precursors and of ubiquitinated proteins. This enzyme is a thiol protease that recognizes and hydrolyzes a peptide bond at the C-terminal glycine of ubiquitin. Also binds to free monoubiquitin and may prevent its degradation in lysosomes. The homodimer may have ATP-independent ubiquitin ligase activity.<ref>PMID:9790970</ref> <ref>PMID:12408865</ref> <ref>PMID:18411255</ref> | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/UCHL1_HUMAN UCHL1_HUMAN] Ubiquitin-protein hydrolase involved both in the processing of ubiquitin precursors and of ubiquitinated proteins.
