Structural highlights
Disease
CBPC5_HUMAN Retinitis pigmentosa. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Function
CBPC5_HUMAN Metallocarboxypeptidase that mediates deglutamylation of tubulin and non-tubulin target proteins. Catalyzes the removal of polyglutamate side chains present on the gamma-carboxyl group of glutamate residues within the C-terminal tail of alpha- and beta-tubulin. Cleaves alpha- and gamma-linked polyglutamate tubulin side-chain, as well as the branching point glutamate. Also catalyzes the removal of alpha-linked glutamate residues from the carboxy-terminus of alpha-tubulin. Mediates deglutamylation of nucleotidyltransferase CGAS, leading to CGAS antiviral defense response activation.[UniProtKB:Q09M02]
