ABSTRACT
Ubiquitin-specific protease 5 (USP5) belongs to the ubiquitin-specific protease (USP) family, which uniquely recognizes unanchored polyubiquitin chains to maintain the homeostasis of monoubiquitin chains. USP5 participates in a wide range of cellular processes by specifically cleaving isopeptide bonds between ubiquitin and substrate proteins or ubiquitin itself. In the process of immune regulation, USP5 affects important cellular signaling pathways, such as NF-κB, Wnt/ß-catenin, and IFN, by regulating ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation. These pathways play important roles in immune regulation and inflammatory responses. In addition, USP5 regulates the activity and function of immunomodulatory signaling pathways via the deubiquitination of key proteins, thereby affecting the activity of immune cells and the regulation of immune responses. In the present review, the structure and function of USP5, its role in immune regulation, and the mechanism by which USP5 affects the development of diseases by regulating immune signaling pathways are comprehensively overviewed. In addition, we also introduce the latest research progress of targeting USP5 in the treatment of related diseases, calling for an interdisciplinary approach to explore the therapeutic potential of targeting USP5 in immune regulation.
