Small-molecule inhibitor of USP7/HAUSP ubiquitin protease stabilizes and activates p53 in cells
1 Aug 2009
Abstract excerpt
Deregulation of the ubiquitin/proteasome system has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many human diseases, including cancer. Ubiquitin-specific proteases (USP) are cysteine proteases involved in the deubiquitination of protein substrates. Functional connections between USP7 and essential viral proteins and oncogenic pathways, such as the p53/Mdm2 and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B networks,...
