Ubiquitin-specific protease; situated in the base subcomplex of the 26S proteasome, releases free ubiquitin from branched polyubiquitin chains en bloc, rather than from the distal tip of the chain; negatively regulates degradation of ubiquitinated proteins by the proteasome; works in opposition to Hul5p polyubiquitin elongation activity; mutant has aneuploidy tolerance; human homolog UBP14 complements yeast null mutant [Source:SGD;Acc:S000001906]
