DESCRIPTION

Also known as CBPC6_MOUSE, Agbl4, Ccp6. Metallocarboxypeptidase that mediates protein deglutamylation of tubulin and non-tubulin target proteins (PubMed:21074048, PubMed:25103237, PubMed:26829768, PubMed:29593216). Catalyzes the removal of polyglutamate side chains present on the gamma-carboxyl group of glutamate residues within the C-terminal tail of tubulin protein (PubMed:21074048, PubMed:25103237). Specifically cleaves tubulin long-side-chains, while it is not able to remove the branching point glutamate (PubMed:25103237). Also catalyzes the removal of polyglutamate residues from the carboxy-terminus of non-tubulin proteins such as MYLK (PubMed:21074048). Mediates the deglutamylation of nucleotidyltransferase CGAS, leading to CGAS antiviral defense response activation (PubMed:26829768). Involved in KLF4 deglutamylation which promotes KLF4 proteasome-mediated degradation, thereby negatively regulating cell pluripotency maintenance and embryogenesis (PubMed:29593216). Interacts with MYLK.
