Advance in function of deubiquitination enzyme BRCC36 / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

The protein of BRCC36 is a kind of enzyme specifically hydrolyzing K 63-linked poly-ubiquitin chain and widely found in a variety of eukaryotic cells .BRCC36 recognizes diverse substrate proteins , and participates in various kinds of pathophysiological responses such as DNA damage repair , cell signal transduction and cell cycle control .It plays an important role in the process of cancer , angiogenesis and cardiac injury .This review discusses the progress in the inves-tigation on BRCC36 protein to provide the necessary information for searching new therapeutic targets of many diseases .
