Ubiquitin-specific protease USP25 functions in endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation [PDF]
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD) discards abnormal proteins synthesized in the ER. Through coordinated actions of ERAD components, misfolded/anomalous proteins are recognized, ubiquitinated, extracted from the ER and ultimately ...

Niclosamide prevents the formation of large ubiquitin-containing aggregates caused by proteasome inhibition. [PDF]
Protein aggregation is a hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases and has been linked to the failure to degrade misfolded and damaged proteins. In the cell, aberrant proteins are degraded by the ubiquitin proteasome system that mainly targets short ...

Fission yeast 26S proteasome mutants are multi-drug resistant due to stabilization of the pap1 transcription factor [PDF]
Here we report the result of a genetic screen for mutants resistant to the microtubule poison methyl benzimidazol-2-yl carbamate (MBC) that were also temperature sensitive for growth.

Assembly of the Drosophila 26 S proteasome is accompanied by extensive subunit rearrangements [PDF]
The subunit contacts in the regulatory complex of the Drosophila 26 S proteasome were studied through the cross-linking of closely spaced subunits of the complex, and analysis of the cross-linking pattern in an immunoblot assay with the use of subunit ...

Intracellular Dynamics of the Ubiquitin-Proteasome-System [version 2; referees: 3 approved]
The ubiquitin-proteasome system is the major degradation pathway for short-lived proteins in eukaryotic cells. Targets of the ubiquitin-proteasome-system are proteins regulating a broad range of cellular processes including cell cycle progression, gene ...
