Cutting to the Core: Mechanistic Dissection of Nuclear Protease Function in Tumour Biology

Proteases are classically viewed as degradative enzymes that function in the cytoplasm or extracellular space. Emerging evidence reveals a surprising role for specific proteases within the nucleus, where they influence key processes such as chromatin remodelling, transcriptional control, and DNA repair.
