Ubiquitin-Specific Peptidase 7

**Definition:** A ubiquitinyl hydrolase that deubiquitinates several proteins with critical roles in DNA REPAIR, cell growth, and survival, including TUMOR SUPPRESSOR PROTEIN P53; MDM-2 PROTEIN; and PTEN PHOSPHOHYDROLASE. It also stabilizes herpesvirus 1 trans-acting transcriptional protein VMW110 during HSV-1 infection, contributing to its function as a TRANS-ACTIVATOR.
