Deubiquitinases: Novel Therapeutic Targets in Immune Surveillance?

Table 1

DUBs involved in TLR, NOD1/2, or inflammasome activation. Knock-out mouse available for these DUBs has been indicated. Mouse model validation of target in which these mice have been used to demonstrate their function on that substrate. This table does not include studies where these mice have been used in other models of inflammation.
