Testis-specific Y-encoded-like protein 5 (TSPYL5)

Involved in modulation of cell growth and cellular response to gamma radiation probably via regulation of the Akt signaling pathway. Involved in regulation of p53/TP53.

Suppresses p53/TP53 protein levels and boosts its own ubiquitination; the function is dependent on USP7 and independent on MDM2. Proposed to displace p53/TP53 from interaction with USP7.
