Dysregulated protein degradation drives diseases like cancer. Here, authors use protein language models to design target-binding peptides, which are subsequently attached to the catalytic domain of the OTUB1 deubiquitinase, generating “deubiquibodies” (duAbs). duAbs restore tumor suppressors and fusion oncoproteins, offering a programmable strategy for protein stabilization.
