Chimeric molecules that include a USP5 binding domain and uses thereof for deubiquitinating a ubiquitinylated protein, and or for treating a disease in a subject in need are provided herein. Further, Survival-Targeting Chimeric (SURTAC) molecules that include a USP5 binding domain linked to a target protein binding domain are disclosed herein, as are their uses for deubiquitination and treating disease. In some instances, the target protein is a ubiquitinylated protein, wherein a bound USP5 enzyme may proteolytically remove ubiquitin from the target ubiquitinylated protein.
本文提供了包括U
SP5结合域的嵌合分子,以及其用于去泛素化泛素化蛋白质或治疗需要治疗的主体的用途。此外,本文还披露了包括U
SP5结合域连接到目标蛋白质结合域的Survival-TArgeting Chimeric(SURTAC)分子,以及它们用于去泛素化和治疗疾病的用途。在某些情况下,目标蛋白质是泛素化蛋白质,其中结合的U
SP5酶可以蛋白
水解地从目标泛素化蛋白质中去除泛素。
