DESCRIPTION

Also known as BRCC3_HUMAN, BRCC3, BRCC36, C6.1A, CXorf53. Metalloprotease that specifically cleaves 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains (PubMed:19214193, PubMed:20656690, PubMed:24075985, PubMed:26344097). Does not have activity toward 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin chains. Component of the BRCA1-A complex, a complex that specifically recognizes 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitinated histones H2A and H2AX at DNA lesions sites, leading to target the BRCA1-BARD1 heterodimer to sites of DNA damage at double-strand breaks (DSBs). In the BRCA1-A complex, it specifically removes 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin on histones H2A and H2AX, antagonizing the RNF8-dependent ubiquitination at double-strand breaks (DSBs) (PubMed:20656690). Catalytic subunit of the BRISC complex, a multiprotein complex that specifically cleaves 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin in various substrates (PubMed:20656690, PubMed:24075985, PubMed:26344097, PubMed:26195665). Mediates the specific 'Lys-63'-specific deubiquitination associated with the COP9 signalosome complex (CSN), via the interaction of the BRISC complex with the CSN complex (PubMed:19214193). The BRISC complex is required for normal mitotic spindle assembly and microtubule attachment to kinetochores via its role in deubiquitinating NUMA1 (PubMed:26195665). Plays a role in interferon signaling via its role in the deubiquitination of the interferon receptor IFNAR1; deubiquitination increases IFNAR1 activity by enhancing its stability and cell surface expression (PubMed:24075985, PubMed:26344097). Down-regulates the response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) via its role in IFNAR1 deubiquitination (PubMed:24075985). Deubiquitinates HDAC1 and PWWP2B leading to their stabilization (By similarity). Component of the ARISC complex, at least composed of UIMC1/RAP80, ABRAXAS1, BRCC3/BRCC36, BABAM2 and BABAM1/NBA1 (PubMed:20656690, PubMed:24075985). Component of the BRCA1-A complex, at least composed of BRCA1, BARD1, UIMC1/RAP80, ABRAXAS1, BRCC3/BRCC36, babam2 and BABAM1/NBA1. In the BRCA1-A complex, interacts directly with ABRAXAS1 and babam2 (PubMed:18077395, PubMed:19261748). Component of the BRISC complex, at least composed of ABRAXAS2, BRCC3/BRCC36, BABAM2 and BABAM1/NBA1 (PubMed:24075985, PubMed:25283148, PubMed:26344097). Identified in a complex with SHMT2 and the other subunits of the BRISC complex (PubMed:24075985). In the BRISC complex, interacts directly with ABRAXAS2 (PubMed:20656690, PubMed:26344097). Identified in a complex with ABRAXAS2 and NUMA1 (PubMed:26195665). The BRISC complex interacts with the CSN complex. Component of the BRCA1/BRCA2 containing complex (BRCC), which also contains BRCA1, BRCA2, BARD1, BABAM2 and RAD51. BRCC is a ubiquitin E3 ligase complex that enhances cellular survival following DNA damage. Interacts with BRCA1. Binds polyubiquitin. Interacts with PWWP2B (By similarity). Interacts with HDAC1; this interaction is enhanced in the presence of PWWP2B (By similarity).
