Overview

USP21 inhibitor is an early-stage small-molecule inhibitor program being developed by Molecure targeting the deubiquitinase USP21 for the treatment of cancer, specifically focusing on cancer metabolism. USP21 is a deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) that plays a significant role in modulating cancer cell metabolism by affecting mitochondrial function and ATP production. By inhibiting USP21, the program aims to disrupt the metabolic regulation that supports tumor cell proliferation and migration. The project is currently in the hit-to-lead stage, focusing on optimizing identified molecules for activity, selectivity, and pharmacological profile.
