Function	Regulator of deubiquitinating complexes, which acts as a strong activator of USP1, USP12 and USP46 (PubMed:18082604, PubMed:19075014, PubMed:31253762, PubMed:26388029). Enhances the USP1-mediated deubiquitination of FANCD2; USP1 being almost inactive by itself (PubMed:18082604, PubMed:31253762). Activates deubiquitination by increasing the catalytic turnover without increasing the affinity of deubiquitinating enzymes for the substrate (PubMed:19075014, PubMed:27373336). Also activates deubiquitinating activity of complexes containing USP12 (PubMed:19075014, PubMed:27650958, PubMed:27373336). In complex with USP12, acts as a potential tumor suppressor by positively regulating PHLPP1 stability (PubMed:24145035). Docks at the distal end of the USP12 fingers domain and induces a cascade of structural changes leading to the activation of the enzyme (PubMed:27650958, PubMed:27373336). Together with RAD51AP1, promotes DNA repair by stimulating RAD51-mediated homologous recombination (PubMed:27463890, PubMed:27239033, PubMed:32350107). Binds single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) (PubMed:27239033, PubMed:31253762, PubMed:32350107). DNA-binding is required both for USP1-mediated deubiquitination of FANCD2 and stimulation of RAD51-mediated homologous recombination
