UFSP2

Chr 4ADAR

UFM1 specific peptidase 2

The protein is a thiol-dependent isopeptidase that cleaves UFM1 (ubiquitin-fold modifier 1) from conjugated target proteins and processes UFM1 precursors, playing a critical role in cellular protein modification and ribosome recycling. Mutations cause developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia, and Beukes hip dysplasia, affecting both neurological development and skeletal systems. The gene shows extreme intolerance to loss-of-function variants (pLI near 1.0) and follows both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive inheritance patterns.
