Relevance to Autism
This gene was identified by TADA (transmission and de novo association) analysis of a combined dataset from the Simons Simplex Collection (SSC) and the Autism Sequencing Consortium (ASC) as a gene strongly enriched for variants likely to affect ASD risk with a false discovery rate (FDR) of <0.1 (Sanders et al., 2015); among the variants identified in this gene was one de novo loss-of-function (LoF) variant.
Molecular Function
The protein encoded by this gene acts catalyzes the thiol-dependent hydrolysis of ester, thioester, amide, peptide and isopeptide bonds formed by the C-terminal Gly of ubiquitin (a 76-residue protein attached to proteins as an intracellular targeting signal).
