Gene: [22q112/UFD1L] ubiquitin fusion degradation 1-like protein;

COM

The gene encodes the human homolog of the yeast ubiquitin fusion degradation 1 (UFD1) protein that is involved in the degradation of ubiquitin fusion proteins (see GEM:00.0/UBA1). The proteolytic pathway recognizing ubiquitin fusion proteins for degradation is conserved in vertebrates and that UFD1L gene hemizygosity may be the cause of some of the CATCH22-associated developmental defects (GEM:22q112/DGCR) (Pizutti-1997)."
