Ubiquitin-specific proteases

(1) removal of ubiquitination to stabilize

proteins and protect them

from ubiquitination-proteasomal

degradation;

(2) processing and maturation of

ubiquitin precursors;

(3) cleaving poly-ubiquitin chains to

recycle ubiquitin;

(4) editing ubiquitin chains from one

to another to adapt different activities.
