'''Deubiquitinating enzymes or Deubiquitinases (DUBs)''' are enzymes with an ubiquitin-dependent action. More than a hundred DUBs genes exist in humans, making it a very diverse protein and allowing targeted action. Their main role is to cleave ubiquitin bound to a substrate, often a protein. Ubiquitin, bound to the substrate, allows it to regulate its degradation by the proteasome or lysozyme, influences its cellular localisation or modulates the activity with another protein. <ref>PMID:17218518</ref><ref>PMID:12860974</ref> | '''Deubiquitinating enzymes or Deubiquitinases (DUBs)''' are enzymes with an ubiquitin-dependent action.
