Molecular cloning of cDNA for a new regulatory subunit, designated p97, of the human 26S proteasome showed that the polypeptide consists of 908 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular mass of 100184 Da and an isoelectric point of 4.94. Computer analysis showed that p97 is very similar to type-1 tumor-necrosis-factor (TNF)-receptor-associated protein (TRAP)-2 and 55.11, both of which were identified recently as binding proteins of the cytoplasmic domain of type-1 TNF receptor by yeast two-hybrid screening. This finding suggests that the 26S proteasome might serve as a mediator molecule in the TNF signaling pathway in cells. Computer-assisted similarity analysis also revealed the high sequence similarity of p97 with a yeast protein whose function is yet unknown, the gene for which is here termed NAS1 (non-ATPase subunit 1). Disruption of NAS1 resulted in several phenotypes, including lethality and temperature-sensitive growth, depending on the genetic background of the cells used. The human p97 cDNA suppressed the growth defect of nas1 disruptant cells, when expressed from single-copy or multi-copy vectors, indicating that p97 is functionally equivalent to yeast Nas1p. Culturing of the temperature-sensitive nas1 cells at the restrictive temperature promoted the accumulation polyubiquitinated cellular proteins, implying that the 26S proteasome requires a functional Nas1p subunit for ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis. These results indicate that p97/Nas1p plays an important regulatory role in the function of the 26S proteasome.

The ocular lens consists of a single layer of epithelial cells on its anterior surface and underlying fiber cells, which are derived from the epithelial cells by differentiation and make up the bulk of the lens. Because lens cells are segregated by age and stage of differentiation, we are using this tissue to study the role of the proteasome in differentiation. The purpose of this study is to corroborate the ATPase function of chick subunit 4 (cS4) and assess the levels of the mRNA in the differentiating lens relative to other tissues. We have generated a computer model of the tertiary structure of the ATPase domain of the cS4 of the ATPase complex that regulates the 20S proteasome. The predicted polypeptide from the cloned cDNA of cS4 (440 residues) had a calculated molecular mass of 49,182 and is 98 and 73% identical to human and yeast S4 protein sequences, respectively. A computer search for comparison with known proteins in GenBank showed that the cS4 protein sequence has a conserved region of about 200 amino acid residues including an ATP/GTP binding site and a mitochondrial energy transfer proteins signature sequence. Based on secondary structure, the computer-generated model of the ATPase domain is comparable to that of RecA, with a root mean square deviation of 0.851 from the RecA triad. mRNA in the 14-day-old chick embryo lens is derived primarily (90%) from differentiating cells. The level of cS4 mRNA determined by quantitative RT/PCR in this differentiating tissue was comparable to the cS4 mRNA levels in chick liver, heart, and brain.

The eukaryotic genome contains a large family of ATPases in which each member has at least one highly conserved domain of approximately 200 amino acids with an ATP binding motif (the "AAA" domain). AAA ATPases play diverse roles in the cell and are of considerable interest to researchers investigating a number of different phenomena, including control of the cell cycle. We have characterized the mouse P26s4 AAA ATPase gene that encodes a subunit of the 26S protease, a multimeric complex that is responsible for the ubiquitin- and ATP-dependent degradation of specific proteins. The normal functioning of eukaryotic cells depends on this pathway to remove regulatory proteins such as cyclins or signal transduction molecules from the intracellular environment, with the appropriate timing to allow normal cell division and development. We have isolated mouse P26s4 cDNAs and mapped the P26s4 gene to chromosome 12. We have analyzed the intron-exon structure of the P26s4 genomic locus and have determined that the gene contains at least 10 introns, the first of which separates the start methionine from the rest of the coding sequence.

Previously, we have shown extensive reprogramming of the ATPase regulator of the 26S proteasome preceding the programmed destruction of intersegmental muscles (ISM) in the tabacco horn moth Manduca sexta (Dawson et al., J. Biol. Chem, 270, 1850-1858, 1995). We now show that the extensive reprogramming of the regulatory components of the 26S proteasome occurs only in ISM and not in flight muscles (FM), which undergo terminal differentiation at ecdysis. Unlike in ISM, the ATPase regulators, MS73, MSS1, TBP1 and mts2, remain at low levels in 26S proteasomes in FM from developmental Stage-0 to Stage-7. The non-ATPase regulator subunit 5a, which binds to multiubiquitin chains, increased in ISM similarly to the ATPases but not in FM. The ecdysteroid agonist RH-5849 prevented these subunit increases in ISM. These findings show that reprogramming of 26 S proteasomes is involved in the specific elimination of ISM during eclosion and does not occur in FM which are needed for adult moth flight.

Hs1VU in E. coli is a new type of ATP-dependent protease composed of two heat shock proteins, the HslU ATPase and the HslV peptidase related to certain beta-type subunits of the 20S proteasome. Here we show that the ATP-dependent hydrolysis of N-carbobenzoxy-Gly-Gly-Leu-7-amido-4-methylcoumarin by the HslVU protease can be markedly stimulated by poly-L-lysine, that is known to activate the casein-degrading activity of the 20S proteasome. However, poly-L-lysine showed little or no effect on the peptidase activity of HslV itself. Instead, it stimulated the hydrolysis of ATP by HslU several-fold. Histone that could stimulate the ATPase activity of HslU also increased the rate of the ATP-dependent peptide hydrolysis by HslV, although to a much lesser extent than by poly-L-lysine. Thus, the poly-L-lysine-mediated increase in the ATPase activity of HslU appears to be responsible for the dramatic activation of the ATP-dependent peptide hydrolysis by HslV. These results suggest that, in the reconstituted HslVU complex, the peptide hydrolysis by HslV occurs in a tightly coupled process with the cleavage of ATP by HslU.

The 26 S proteasome can be assembled from the multicatalytic protease (or 20 S proteasome) and a large multisubunit regulatory complex in an ATP-dependent reaction. The 26 S proteasome and its regulatory complex were purified from rabbit reticulocytes for characterization of their nucleotidase properties. Both particles hydrolyze ATP, CTP, GTP, and UTP to the corresponding nucleoside diphosphate and inorganic phosphate. The Km values for hydrolysis of specific nucleotides by the 26 S proteasome are 15 microM for ATP and CTP, 50 microM for GTP, and 100 microM for UTP; Km values for nucleotide hydrolysis by the regulatory complex are 2-4-fold higher for each nucleotide. Several ATPase inhibitors (erythro-9-[3-(2-hydroxynonyl)]adenine, oligomycin, ouabain, and thapsigargin) had no effect on ATP hydrolysis by either complex whereas known inhibitors of proteolysis by the 26 S enzyme (hemin, N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), and vanadate) significantly reduced ATP hydrolysis by both particles. Hydrolysis of all nucleotides was inhibited by 5 mM NEM but only GTP and UTP hydrolysis was significantly reduced at 50 microM NEM. The 15 microM Km for ATP hydrolysis by the 26 S proteasome is virtually identical to the observed Km of 12 microM ATP for Ub-conjugate degradation. Although nucleotide hydrolysis is required for protein degradation by the 26 S proteasome, nucleotide hydrolysis and peptide bond cleavage are not strictly coupled. Substrate specificity constants (kcat/Km) are similar for hydrolysis of each nucleotide, yet GTP and UTP barely supported Ub-conjugate degradation. Further evidence that nucleotide hydrolysis is not coupled to peptide bond cleavage was obtained using N-acetyl-leucyl-leucyl-norleucinal (LLnL). This compound inhibited peptide hydrolysis by the multicatalytic protease and Ub-conjugate degradation by the 26 S proteasome, but it had little effect on ATP or UTP hydrolysis by the 26 S enzyme.

Using a genetic strategy designed to find proteins involved in the function of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae transcriptional activator GAL4, we isolated mutants in two genes which rescue a class of gal4 activation domain mutants. One of these genes, SUG1, encodes a member of a large family of putative ATPases, the Conserved ATPase containing Domain (CAD) proteins (also known as AAA proteins) that are involved in a wide variety of cellular functions. Subsequently, SUG1 was identified as a subunit of the 26 S proteasome. We have now cloned the gene defined by the second complementation group. SUG2 encodes an essential 49-kDa protein that is also a member of the CAD family and is 43% identical to SUG1. The mutation in sug2-1, like that in sug1-1, is found in the CAD near the highly conserved ATPase motif. We present biochemical and genetic evidence that SUG2 is associated in vivo with SUG1 and is a novel CAD protein subunit of the 26 S proteasome. With its highly conserved mammalian homologs, human p42 and ground squirrel CADp44, SUG2 defines a new class of proteasomal CAD proteins.

MS73 is one of a family of ATPases that act as regulatory subunits of the 26S proteasome. Localisation of this ATPase in histological sections of hippocampus from Alzheimer's disease (AD) and in cingulate gyrus sections of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) brains was examined immunohistochemically. In all cases of AD (n = 10) neurofibrillary tangles (NFT), plaque neurites and neuropil threads were immunoreactive for MS73. In seven out of the nine cases of DLB, distinctive MS73-positive structures were detected within cortical Lewy bodies. The association of MS73 with these neuronal abnormalities provides further evidence that proteolytic processing involving the 26S proteasome occurs in lesions of AD and DLB.

We have identified a novel protein, CADp44, based on the analysis of cDNAs derived from the brainstem of the 13-lined ground squirrel, Spermophilus tridecemlineatus. CADp44 has an unmodified molecular mass of 44,178 Da and contains multiple functional domains, including a conserved ATPase domain (CAD) and a leucine zipper motif. We show that distinct regions of the CADp44 sequence are identical to a set of peptides prepared from a recently identified bovine protein, referred to as p42, which is found in the PA700 regulatory complex of the 26S proteasome (DeMartino et al., 1996). We also show that CADp44 is the functional homolog of the newly characterized Sug2 protein from the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Russell et al., 1996). Consistent with its role as a component of the 26S proteasome, CADp44 mRNA is found in all ground squirrel tissues examined. Evolutionary relationships based on sequence analysis show that both CADp44 and yeast Sug2p are distinct from the other five CAD ATPases found in the PA700, and together comprise the sixth and newest CAD subunit of the regulatory complex of the 26S proteasome.

ClpQ (HslV) is a homolog of the beta-subunits of the 20S proteasome. In E. coli, it is expressed from an operon that also encodes ClpY (HslU), an ATPase homologous to the protease chaperone, ClpX. ClpQ (subunit Mr 19,000) and ClpY (subunit Mr 49,000) were purified separately as oligomeric proteins with molecular weights of approximately 220,000 and approximately 350,000, respectively, estimated by gel filtration. Mixtures of ClpY and ClpQ displayed ATP-dependent proteolytic activity against casein, and a complex of the two proteins was isolated by gel filtration in the presence of ATP. Image processing of negatively stained electron micrographs revealed strong six-fold rotational symmetry for both ClpY and ClpQ, suggesting that the subunits of both proteins are arranged in hexagonal rings. The molecular weight of ClpQ combined with its symmetry is consistent with a double hexameric ring, whereas the data on ClpY suggest only one such ring. The symmetry mismatch previously observed between hexameric ClpA and heptameric ClpP in the related ClpAP protease is apparently not reproduced in the symmetry-matched ClpYQ system.
