- | Deubiquitinases or Deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) are key enzymes belonging to the vast group of proteases, allowing the degradation of ubiquitin of proteins. These enzymes are thus implicated in the regulation of protein degradation. Indeed, when a protein is going to be degraded, an enzymatic cascade will add a poly-ubiquitin fragment to the protein. This mechanism is called ubiquitination.[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubiquitination] Following this step, mono or poly-ubiquitin is removed from the protein which has been degraded, by deubiquitinase. | + | Deubiquitinases or Deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) are key enzymes belonging to the vast group of proteases, allowing the degradation of ubiquitin of proteins.

Deubiquitinases belong to the protease family. This family is divided into five classes, according to the nature of the amino acid composition of their active site carrying out the catalysis: serine protease, cysteine proteases, acid proteases, metalloproteases, threonine proteases. DUBs belong to only two of these families: metalloproteases and cysteine proteases. | Deubiquitinases belong to the protease family.

- | Among the cysteine proteins, four subfamilies can be described according to their catalytic domains: ubiquitin-specific proteases (USP), les Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolases (UCH), les Otubain proteases (OTU) et les Machado-joseph disease proteases (MJD). The deubiquitinases belonging to the family of metalloproteases all have a JAMM catalytic domain (JAB1/MPN/Mov34 metalloenzyme). | + | Among the cysteine proteins, four subfamilies can be described according to their catalytic domains: ubiquitin-specific proteases (USP), les Ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolases (UCH), les Otubain proteases (OTU) et les Machado-joseph disease proteases (MJD).
