Ubiquitin-Specific Proteases as Cancer Drug Targets

Future Oncology, 2011
Ubiquitin-specific proteases are deubiquitinating enzymes involved in the removal of ubiquitin from specific protein substrates resulting in protein salvage from proteasome degradation, regulation of protein localization or activation. DNA alteration and overexpression in different cancer types, as well as involvement in many cancer-associated pathways,

Targeting ubiquitin specific proteases for drug discovery

Biochimie, 2008
Deregulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many human diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders and viral diseases. The recent approval of the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib (Velcade) for the treatment of multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma establishes this system as a valid target ...

Activation Dynamics of Ubiquitin Specific Protease 7

2023
ABSTRACT Ubiquitin-specific protease 7 (USP7) is a deubiquitinating enzyme responsible for the regulation of key human oncoproteins and tumor suppressors including Mdm2 and p53, respectively. Unlike other members of the USP family of proteases, the isolated catalytic domain of USP7 adopts an enzymatically inactive conformation that has ...

The role of UBL domains in ubiquitin-specific proteases

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2012
Ubiquitin conjugation and deconjugation provides a powerful signalling system to change the fate of its target enzymes. Ubiquitination levels are organized through a balance between ubiquitinating E1, E2 and E3 enzymes and deubiquitination by DUBs (deubiquitinating enzymes). These enzymes are tightly regulated to control their activity.

Mechanisms of action of ubiquitin-specific proteases, particularly ubiquitin-specific proteases 7, 8, and 25, in depression treatment

Biochemical Pharmacology
Depression is one of the most common and debilitating mental disorders and one of the main causes of disability worldwide. Despite the progress made in the treatment of depression, approximately 20 %-40 % of patients with a major depressive episode do not show a clinical response to current antidepressant treatments. Approximately 85 % of patients with

UBP41 is a proapoptotic ubiquitin-specific protease.

Cancer research, 2003
We have isolated Ubp41, a ubiquitin-specific protease, in a screen for proapoptoticgenes. We found that overexpression of Ubp41 is sufficient to elicit all features of apoptosis in human cells. In contrast, an enzymatically defective UBP41 mutant and homologous ubiquitin-processing protease family members did not significantly induce cell death ...

Exploring Ubiquitin-specific proteases as therapeutic targets in Glioblastoma

Pathology Research and Practice
Glioblastoma (GB) remains a formidable challenge and requires new treatment strategies. The vital part of the Ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) in cellular regulation has positioned it as a potentially crucial target in GB treatment, given its dysregulation oncolines.

The ubiquitin-specific protease USP28 is required for MYC stability

Nature Cell Biology, 2007
The MYC proto-oncogene encodes a transcription factor that has been implicated in the genesis of many human tumours. Here, we used a bar-code short hairpin RNA (shRNA) screen to identify multiple genes that are required for MYC function. One of these genes encodes USP28, an ubiquitin-specific protease.
