KBTBD4 inhibitors encompass a range of compounds that, while not directly targeting KBTBD4, can indirectly inhibit its activity by modulating the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). These inhibitors work by hindering the degradation of ubiquitinated proteins, which results in an accumulation of ubiquitin-tagged substrates in the cell. This accumulation ramps up the competition for KBTBD4, as the enzyme's substrate-binding capacity can become saturated. When proteasome inhibitors like Bortezomib, Carfilzomib, or Oprozomib are in play, the UPS is disrupted, leading to elevated levels of ubiquitinated proteins. KBTBD4, which has roles in binding to these proteins, is then indirectly inhibited due to the overstressed system, which limits its ability to interact with its intended targets. The increase in ubiquitinated proteins can also affect the enzyme's selectivity, as it may not be able to differentiate between substrates effectively under these competitive conditions.
In addition to proteasome inhibitors, compounds like PR-619 and PYR-41, which are deubiquitinase and E1 enzyme inhibitors respectively, also indirectly impede KBTBD4 activity.
