Indeed, the complexity of the recognition site of DUBs, which requires the binding of full-length ubiquitin in the catalytic site as well as the challenges in the characterization of potent and selective DUB inhibitors , has hindered production of ABPs for DUBs. However, following on from the ground-breaking evolution of cell-permeable and in vivo-compatible activity-based imaging probes developed for other proteases such as caspases or cathepsins [ 69 , 70 ] , the next generation of probes for DUBs will certainly be agents that enable direct visualization and quantifi cation of DUB activity in vivo. ./cache/cord-007682-01iom9al.txt ./txt/cord-007682-01iom9al.txt
