Broad Spectrum Deubiquitinase Inhibition Induces Both Apoptosis and Ferroptosis in Cancer Cells
Proteasomal deubiquitinase (DUB) inhibition has been found to be effective in experimental cancer therapy by inducing proteasome inhibition and apoptosis. Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death characterized by an iron-dependent lipid peroxidation.

Dual function of the Leon/USP5 deubiquitinase in the ubiquitin-proteasome and autophagic pathways
The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy are highly conserved processes that maintain cellular health through the clearance of misfolded/aberrant proteins and damaged organelles.

A molecular sensor determines the ubiquitin substrate specificity of SARS-CoV-2 papain-like protease
Summary: The SARS-CoV-2 papain-like protease (PLpro) is a target for antiviral drug development. It is essential for processing viral polyproteins for replication and functions in host immune evasion by cleaving ubiquitin (Ub) and ubiquitin-like protein (

As an important post-translational modification, ubiquitination mediates ∼80% of protein degradation in eukaryotes. The degree of protein ubiquitination is tightly determined by the delicate balance between specific ubiquitin ligase (E3)-mediated ...
