Dual function of the Leon/USP5 deubiquitinase in the ubiquitin-proteasome and autophagic pathways
The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy are highly conserved processes that maintain cellular health through the clearance of misfolded/aberrant proteins and damaged organelles.Ubiquitination is a crucial protein modification to regulate entry in these two pathways.However, the function of deubiquitinases (DUBs) in the UPS and autophagy
