Abstract
OTUD5 (OTU Deubiquitinase 5) is a functional cysteine protease with deubiquitinase activity and is a member of the ovarian tumor protease (OTU) family. OTUD5 is involved in the deubiquitination of many key proteins in various cellular signaling pathways and plays an important role in maintaining normal human development and physiological functions. Its dysfunction can affect physiological processes, such as immunity and DNA damage repair, and it can even lead to tumors, inflammatory diseases and genetic disorders. Therefore, the regulation of OTUD5 activity and expression has become a hot topic of research. A comprehensive understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of OTUD5 and its use as a therapeutic target for diseases is of great value. Herein, we review the physiological processes and molecular mechanisms of OTUD5 regulation, outline the specific regulatory processes of OTUD5 activity and expression, and link OTUD5 to diseases from the perspective of studies on signaling pathways, molecular interactions, DNA damage repair and immune regulation, thus providing a theoretical basis for future studies.
