Specific lid-base contacts in the 26s proteasome control the conformational switching required for substrate degradation. [PDF]
The 26S proteasome is essential for proteostasis and the regulation of vital processes through ATP-dependent degradation of ubiquitinated substrates. To accomplish the multi-step degradation process, the proteasomes regulatory particle, consisting of lid
