Protein ubiquitination is a dynamic process that can be reversed by deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) that remove ubiquitin from proteins, sparing them from degradation by the proteasome. The DUBs have been divided into two subgroups: ubiquitin-specific proteases (USPs) and ubiquitin-specific COOH-terminal hydrolases (UCHs). Recent evidence suggests that several DUBs are activated in tumor cells and many contribute to a transformed phenotype.{24477} WP1130 is a second-generation tyrphostin derivative that inhibits the deubiquitinase activity of USP9x, USP5, USP14, and UCH37.{24478,24477} At 5 ?M, WP1130-mediated inhibition of tumor-activated DUBs induces a rapid accumulation of protein-ubiquitin conjugates, resulting in the formation of aggresomes and apoptosis in a variety of tumor cells.{24477} Through this mechanism, WP1130 has been shown to downregulate the antiapoptotic proteins Bcr/Abl and Jak2 and to upregulate the proapoptotic proteins MCL-1 and p53.{24477}
