Facts about Lys-63-specific deubiquitinase BRCC36.
In the BRCA1-A complex, it specifically removes'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin on histones H2A and H2AX, antagonizing the RNF8-dependent ubiquitination at double- strand breaks (DSBs) (PubMed:20656690). Catalytic subunit of the BRISC complex, a multiprotein complex that specifically cleaves'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin in a variety of substrates (PubMed:20656690, PubMed:24075985, PubMed:26344097, PubMed:26195665).

Heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. Aberrantly expressed in the vast majority of breast tumors.
Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole. Localizes at sites of DNA damage at double-strand breaks (DSBs) (PubMed:20656690, PubMed:26344097). Interaction with ABRAXAS2 retains BRCC3 in the cytoplasm (PubMed:20656690).
