Facts about Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 11.
Cleaves preferentially 'Lys-6' and 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin chains. Has lower activity with'Lys-11' and'Lys-33'-linked ubiquitin chains, and extremely low activity with'Lys-27','Lys-29' and'Lys-48'- linked ubiquitin chains (in vitro) (PubMed:24724799).
