Identification, purification, and characterization of a PA700-dependent activator of the proteasome.
The activity of the intracellular protease, the proteasome, is modulated by a number of specific regulatory proteins. One such regulator, PA700, is a 700,000-Da multisubunit protein that activates hydrolytic activities of the proteasome via a mechanism that involves the ATP-dependent formation of a proteasome-PA700 complex. Four subunits of PA700 have been shown previously to be members of a pr...
The eukaryotic proteasome mediates degradation of polyubiquitinated proteins. Here we report the single-particle cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of the endogenous 26S proteasome from Saccharomyces cerevisiae at 4.6- to 6.3-Å resolution. The fine features of the cryo-EM maps allow modeling of 18 subunits in the regulatory particle and 28 in the core particle. The proteasome exhibits...
Poh1 deubiquitinase activity is required for proteolytic processing of polyubiquitinated substrates by the 26S proteasome, linking deubiquitination to complete substrate degradation. Poh1 RNA interference (RNAi) in HeLa cells resulted in a reduction in cell viability and an increase in polyubiquitinated protein levels, supporting the link between Poh1 and the ubiquitin proteasome pathway. To mo...
As the central figure of the cellular protein degradation machinery, the proteasome is critical for cell survival. Having been extensively targeted for inhibition, the constitutive proteasome has proven its role as a highly valuable drug target. However, recent advances in the protein homeostasis field suggest that additional chapters can be added to this successful story. For example, selectiv...
The observation that tumour cells are more sensitive to pharmacological inhibition of the proteasome than normal cells has led to the development of the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib. To date, this is the only proteasome inhibitor that has been approved for clinical use. The clinical success of bortezomib, combined with the occurrence of adverse effects and the development of clinical resista...
Proteasomes are attractive emerging targets for anti-cancer therapies. Auranofin (Aur), a gold-containing compound clinically used to treat rheumatic arthritis, was recently approved by US Food and Drug Administration for Phase II clinical trial to treat cancer but its anti-cancer mechanism is poorly understood. Here we report that (i) Aur shows proteasome-inhibitory effect that is comparable t...
The ubiquitin-proteasome proteolytic pathway is pivotal in most biological processes. Despite a great level of information available for the eukaryotic 26S proteasome-the protease responsible for the degradation of ubiquitylated proteins-several structural and functional questions remain unanswered. To gain more insight into the assembly and function of the metazoan 26S proteasome, a two-hybrid...
We report the discovery of a short-lived chaperone that is required for the correct maturation of the eukaryotic 20S proteasome and is destroyed at a specific stage of the assembly process. The S. cerevisiae Ump1p protein is a component of proteasome precursor complexes containing unprocessed beta subunits but is not detected in the mature 20S proteasome. Upon the association of two precursor c...
Germline mutations in PTEN have been described in a spectrum of syndromes that are collectively known as PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (PHTS). In addition to being mutated in the germline in PHTS, somatic lossof-function PTEN mutations are seen in a wide range of sporadic human tumors. Here, we show evidence of upregulated proteasome activity in PHTS-derived lymphoblasts, Pten knock-in mice and...
The stress proteasome in the animal kingdom facilitates faster conversion of oxidized proteins during stress conditions by incorporating different catalytic β subunits. Plants deal with similar kind of stresses and also carry multiple paralogous genes encoding for each of the three catalytic β subunits. Here, we investigated the existence of stress proteasomes upon abiotic stress (salt stress) ...
