Proteasome assembly

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2014
In eukaryotic cells, proteasomes are highly conserved protease complexes and eliminate unwanted proteins which are marked by poly-ubiquitin chains for degradation. The 26S proteasome consists of the proteolytic core particle, the 20S proteasome, and the 19S regulatory particle, which are composed of 14 and 19 different subunits, respectively ...

The proteasome

Seminars in Oncology, 2004
The proteasome is an abundant multicatalytic enzyme complex present in the cytoplasm and nucleus of all eukaryotic cells. The primary function of the proteasome is to degrade proteins. While it was once thought to act primarily as a cellular "garbage disposal" that removed damaged or misfolded proteins from cells, the proteasome is now known to also ...

THE PROTEASOME

Annual Review of Biophysics and Biomolecular Structure, 1999
▪ Abstract  Proteasomes are large multisubunit proteases that are found in the cytosol, both free and attached to the endoplasmic reticulum, and in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. Their ubiquitous presence and high abundance in these compartments reflects their central role in cellular protein turnover.

The proteasome

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 1997
The proteasome is a macromolecular assembly that is designed to confine proteolytic activity to an inner cavity. Access to the central proteolytic nanocompartment is restricted to unfolded proteins, which necessitates a functional coupling of the 20S proteasome to a substrate-recognition and unfolding machinery.

Eubacterial proteasomes

Molecular Biology Reports, 1997
Proteasomes are large, multisubunit proteases with highly conserved structures. The 26S proteasome of eukaryotes is an ATP-dependent enzyme of about 2 MDa, which acts as the central protease of the ubiquitin-dependent pathway of protein degradation. The core of the 26S complex is formed by the 20S proteasome, an ATP-independent, barrel-shaped protease ...

Proteasomes

Essays in Biochemistry, 2005
The major enzyme system catalysing the degradation of intracellular proteins is the proteasome system. A central inner chamber of the cylinder-shaped 20 S proteasome contains the active site, formed by N-terminal threonine residues. The 20 S proteasomes are extremely inefficient in degrading folded protein substrates and therefore one or two ...
