Name

LOC345576 Gene

ubiquitin specific peptidase 7 (herpes virus-associated) pseudogene

USP7 Gene

ubiquitin specific peptidase 7 (herpes virus-associated)

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the peptidase C19 family, which includes ubiquitinyl hydrolases. This protein deubiquitinates target proteins such as p53 (a tumor suppressor protein) and WASH (essential for endosomal protein recycling), and regulates their activities by counteracting the opposing ubiquitin ligase activity of proteins such as HDM2 and TRIM27, involved in the respective process. Mutations in this gene have been implicated in a neurodevelopmental disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]

ORAOV1 Gene

oral cancer overexpressed 1

Involved in protein maturation by [4Fe-4S] cluster transfer; ribosomal large subunit biogenesis; and translational initiation. Predicted to be located in nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

ORAOV1P1 Gene

oral cancer overexpressed 1 pseudogene 1

OFD1 Gene

oral-facial-digital syndrome 1

This gene is located on the X chromosome and encodes a centrosomal protein. A knockout mouse model has been used to study the effect of mutations in this gene. The mouse gene is also located on the X chromosome, however, unlike the human gene it is not subject to X inactivation. Mutations in this gene are associated with oral-facial-digital syndrome type I and Simpson-Golabi-Behmel syndrome type 2. Many pseudogenes have been identified; a single pseudogene is found on chromosome 5 while as many as fifteen have been found on the Y chromosome. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]
