Predicted to enable WD40-repeat domain binding activity; cysteine-type endopeptidase activity; and thiol-dependent deubiquitinase. Involved in cellular response to UV. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of SCF ubiquitin ligase complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Orthologous to human USP47 (ubiquitin specific peptidase 47).
