SFRP2 Potentiates Metastasis of Colon Cancer by Enhancing Snai1 Protein Stability via USP11
ABSTRACT Metastatic colon cancer remains a significant clinical challenge, often associated with poor patient prognosis. Recent studies have identified the secreted frizzled‐related protein 2 (SFRP2) as a key player in this malignancy, showing its overexpression in metastatic cases.

Defining the regulatory determinants in substrate catalysis by biochemical, biophysical, and kinetic studies for the development of specific small-molecule inhibitors of ubiquitin specific proteases 7 and 17 [PDF]
Ubiquitination is an important post-translational modification involved in maintaining cellular homeostasis by regulating many delicate cellular processes, including the cell-cycle, membrane protein trafficking, endocytosis and apoptosis.

Ubiquitin-specific proteases as cancer drug targets
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.

The uncovered IKKβ‐USP28‐HEY1 axis fuels cancer stemness and immune evasion in hepatocellular carcinoma. USP28 deubiquitinates HEY1 upon IKKβ‐mediated phosphorylation, conferring PD‐1/PD‐L1 blockade resistance. Pharmacological inhibition of USP28 sensitizes resistant tumors to anti‐PD‐1 immunotherapy, revealing a promising therapeutic strategy ...

High incidence of ubiquitin-like domains in human ubiquitin-specific proteases
Ubiquitin-specific proteases (USPs) emerge as key regulators of numerous cellular processes and account for the bulk of human deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs).

Ubiquitin-specific proteases 7 and 11 modulate Polycomb regulation of the INK4a tumour suppressor [PDF]
An important facet of transcriptional repression by Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1) is the mono-ubiquitination of histone H2A by the combined action of the Posterior sex combs (Psc) and Sex combs extra (Sce) proteins.
