USP42
ubiquitin specific peptidase 42 | FLJ12697

Enables cysteine-type deubiquitinase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein deubiquitination; regulation of apoptotic process; and regulation of protein stability. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

USP42 — as a Regulated Gene

TFs regulating USP42 0 TFs

Transcription factors with Perturb-seq knockdown data for USP42. The Binding column indicates whether any binding evidence exists for this TF–gene pair (ChIP-seq or motif footprint peaks). The Mean coef is the average Perturb-seq regression coefficient across active gRNAs (positive = USP42 upregulated upon KD; negative = downregulated). The Outlier column indicates whether this gene is in the top or bottom 5% of all TF knockdown effects.

Elements linked to USP42

Open chromatin peaks (ATAC-seq) in the genomic neighbourhood of USP42, linked by TSS proximity or chromatin conformation (Multiome / HiCAR). Each element overlaps at least one TF ChIP-seq binding site — the TFs column shows how many distinct TFs bind that element.
