Facts about Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase BAP1.
Does not deubiquitinate monoubiquitinated histone H2B. Acts as a regulator of cell growth by mediating deubiquitination of HCFC1 N-terminal and C-terminal chains, with some specificity toward'Lys-48'- linked polyubiquitin chains in contrast to'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains.

Highly expressed in testis, placenta and ovary. Expressed in breast.
Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Mainly nuclear. Binds to chromatin. Localizes to the cytoplasm when monoubiquitinated by the E2/E3 hybrid ubiquitin-protein ligase UBE2O (PubMed:24703950).
