Function | Deubiquitinates histone H2A, a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional repression, thereby acting as a coactivator. Deubiquitination of histone H2A releaves the repression of di- and trimethylation of histone H3 at 'Lys-4', resulting in regulation of transcriptional initiation. Regulates gene expression via histone H2A deubiquitination (By similarity). Also capable of removing NEDD8 from NEDD8 conjugates but has no effect on Sentrin-1 conjugates. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10799498}. |
Subcellular Location | Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21888622}. Nucleus {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21888622}. |
Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in heart, pancreas and skeletal muscle. Also expressed in brain, placenta, liver and kidney, and at very low level in lung. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10799498}. |
