Ubiquitin-specific peptidase 37: an important cog in the oncogenic machinery of cancerous cells
Abstract Protein ubiquitination is one of the most crucial posttranslational modifications responsible for regulating the stability and activity of proteins involved in homeostatic cellular function. Inconsistencies in the ubiquitination process may lead to tumorigenesis. Ubiquitin-specific peptidas...
