The ubiquitin-proteasome system of intracellular proteolysis is essential for cell viability. We propose the concept that neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, as well as other conditions including some types of cancer, collectively represent a raft of 'ubiquitin protein catabolic disorders' in which altered function of the ubiquitin-proteasome system can cause or directly contribute to...
