Deubiquitinases (DUBs) are emerging as important regulators of many pathways germane to cancer. They may regulate the stability of key oncogenes, exemplified by USP28 stabilisation of c-Myc. Alternatively they can negatively regulate ubiquitin-dependent signalling cascades such as the NF-kappaB activation pathway. We review the current literature that associates DUBs with cancer and discuss their suitability as drug targets of the future.
