The 26S proteasome complex plays a major role in the non-lysosomal degradation of intracellular proteins. Purified 26S proteasomes give a pattern of more than 40 spots on 2D-PAGE gels. The positions of subunits have been identified by mass spectrometry of tryptic peptides and by immunoblotting with subunit-specific antipeptide antibodies. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of proteasomes immunoprecipitated from [32P]phosphate-labelled human embryo lung L-132 cells revealed the presence of at least three major phosphorylated polypeptides among the regulatory subunits as well as the C8 and C9 components of the core 20S proteasome. Comparison with the positions of the regulatory polypeptides revealed a minor phosphorylated form to be S7 (MSS1). Antibodies against S4, S6 (TBP7) and S12 (MOV34) all cross-reacted at the position of major phosphorylated polypeptides suggesting that several of the ATPase subunits may be phosphorylated. The phosphorylation of S4 was confirmed by double immunoprecipitation experiments in which 26S proteasomes were immunoprecipitated as above and dissociated and then S4 was immunoprecipitated with subunit-specific antibodies. Antibodies against the non-ATPase subunit S10, which has been suggested by others to be phosphorylated, did not coincide with the position of a phosphorylated polypeptide. Some differences were observed in the 2D-PAGE pattern of proteasomes immunoprecipitated from cultured cells compared to purified rat liver 26S proteasomes suggesting possible differences in subunit compositions of 26S proteasomes.

Objectives were to investigate the role of the proteasome and m-calpain to muscle cell differentiation. Accordingly, we investigated the effects of lactacystin, a proteasome inhibitor, and calpain inhibitor-II (CI-II) on L8 muscle cell differentiation and assessed concentrations of proteasomal and calpain subunit mRNAs during differentiation. L8 myoblasts were induced to differentiate by culturing in mitogen-depleted medium. To assess the importance of the proteasome and calpain to differentiation, we examined effects of lactacystin and CI-II on creatine kinase (CK) activity. In the absence of inhibitor, CK activity was detectable within 48 h of mitogen depletion and myotubes were formed. Addition of lactacystin or CI-II to cultures drastically reduced CK activity and prevented formation of myotubes. Hence, proteasome and calpain are both necessary for differentiation. In order to identify which proteasomal subunits were regulated during differentiation, we examined the concentrations of two 20S core subunits (C8 and C9) and three 22S ATPases (MSS1, S4 and TBP1) during differentiation. Concentrations of m-calpain and beta-tubulin mRNAs were also assessed. Differentiation was associated with slight increases (ca. 30%) in concentrations of mRNAs encoding the proteasomal 20S core subunits (C8 and C9) and with large increases (approximately 2-fold) in mRNAs encoding the regulatory subunit ATPases. m-calpain mRNA concentration also increased two-fold following mitogen depletion. beta-Tubulin mRNA concentration remained unchanged early in the differentiation process and thereafter declined. Of interest, changes in proteasomal and m-calpain mRNAs occurred within 6-24 h of mitogen depletion (i.e., at least 24-36 h prior to detectable changes in creatine kinase activity). These results indicate that changes in expression of proteasome and calpains subunits occur early in the differentiation process. These changes may be required for the normal course of differentiation to proceed. Differentiation is associated with larger changes in proteasomal ATPase mRNAs than in 20S core particle mRNAs indicating that either turnover rates of the 22S ATPase subunits are more rapid in differentiating cells than of the 20S core particles or that functions of the regulatory subunits become more important during muscle cell differentiation.

The COP9 complex, genetically identified in Arabidopsis as a repressor of photomorphogenesis, is composed of multiple subunits including COP9, FUS6 (also known as COP11) and the Arabidopsis JAB1 homolog 1 (AJH1) ([1-3]; unpublished observations). We have previously demonstrated the existence of the mammalian counterpart of the COP9 complex and purified the complex by conventional biochemical and immunoaffinity procedures [4]. Here, we report the molecular identities of all eight subunits of the mammalian COP9 complex. We show that the COP9 complex is highly conserved between mammals and higher plants, and probably among most multicellular eukaryotes. It is not present in the single-cell eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae, however. All of the subunits of the COP9 complex contain structural features that are also present in the components of the proteasome regulatory complex and the translation initiation factor eIF3 complex. Six subunits of the COP9 complex have overall similarity with six distinct non-ATPase regulatory subunits of the 26S proteasome, suggesting that the COP9 complex and the proteasome regulatory complex are closely related in their evolutionary origin. Subunits of the COP9 complex include regulators of the Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and c-Jun, a nuclear hormone receptor binding protein and a cell-cycle regulator. This suggests that the COP9 complex is an important cellular regulator modulating multiple signaling pathways.

We employed cDNA cloning to deduce the complete primary structures of p28 and p40.5, two novel subunits of PA700 (also called 19S complex), a 700 kDa multisubunit regulatory complex of the human 26S proteasome. These polypeptides consisted of 226 and 376 amino acids with calculated molecular masses of 24428 Da and 42945 Da, and isoelectric points of 5. 68 and 5.46, respectively. Intriguingly, p28 contained five conserved motifs known as 'ankyrin repeats', implying that this subunit may contribute to interaction of the 26S proteasome with other protein(s). Computer-assisted homology analysis revealed high sequence similarities of p28 and p40.5 with yeast proteins, termed Nas6p and Nas7p (non-ATPase subunits 6 and 7), respectively, whose functions are as yet unknown. Disruption of these yeast genes, NAS6 and NAS7, had no effect on cell viability, indicating that neither of the two subunits is essential for proliferation of yeast cells. However, the NAS7, but not NAS6, disruptant cells caused high sensitivity to heat stress, being unable to proliferate at 37 degreesC.

A family of ATPases resides within the regulatory particle of the proteasome. These proteins (Rpt1-Rpt6) have been proposed to mediate substrate unfolding, which may be required for translocation of substrates through the channel that leads from the regulatory particle into the proteolytic core particle. To analyze the role of ATP hydrolysis in protein breakdown at the level of the individual ATPase, we have introduced equivalent site-directed mutations into the ATPbinding motif of each RPT gene. Non-conservative substitutions of the active-site lysine were lethal in four of six cases, and conferred a strong growth defect in two cases. Thus, the ATPases are not functionally redundant, despite their multiplicity and sequence similarity. Degradation of a specific substrate can be inhibited by ATP-binding-site substitutions in many of the Rpt proteins, indicating that they co-operate in the degradation of individual substrates. The phenotypic defects of the different rpt mutants were strikingly varied. The most divergent phenotype was that of the rpt1 mutant, which was strongly growth defective despite showing no general defect in protein turnover. In addition, rpt1 was unique among the rpt mutants in displaying a G1 cell-cycle defect. Proteasomes purified from an rpt2 mutant showed a dramatic inhibition of peptidase activity, suggesting a defect in gating of the proteasome channel. In summary, ATP promotes protein breakdown by the proteasome through multiple mechanisms, as reflected by the diverse phenotypes of the rpt mutants.

20S proteasomes were purified from Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) and shown to be built from one alpha-type subunit (PrcA) and one beta-type subunit (PrcB). The enzyme displayed chymotrypsin-like activity on synthetic substrates and was sensitive to peptide aldehyde and peptide vinyl sulfone inhibitors and to the Streptomyces metabolite lactacystin. Characterization of the structural genes revealed an operon-like gene organization (prcBA) similar to Rhodococcus and Mycobacterium spp. and showed that the beta subunit is encoded with a 53-amino-acid propeptide which is removed during proteasome assembly. The upstream DNA region contains the conserved orf7 and an AAA ATPase gene (arc).

26S proteasomes are the key enzyme complexes responsible for selective turnover of short-lived and misfolded proteins. Based on the assumption that they are dispersed over the nucleoplasm and cytoplasm in all eukaryotic cells, we wanted to determine the subcellular distribution of 26S proteasomes in living yeast cells. For this purpose, we generated yeast strains that express functional green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusions of proteasomal subunits. An alpha subunit of the proteolytically active 20S core complex of the 26S proteasome, Pre6/YOL038w, as well as an ATPase-type subunit of the regulatory 19S cap complex, Cim5/YOL145w, were tagged with GFP. Both chimeras were shown to be incorporated completely into active 26S proteasomes. Microscopic analysis revealed that GFP-labelled 20S as well as 19S subunits are accumulated mainly in the nuclear envelope (NE)-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) network in yeast. These findings were supported by the co-localization and co-enrichment of 26S proteasomes with NE-ER marker proteins. A major location of proteasomal peptide cleavage activity was visualized in the NE-ER network, indicating that proteasomal degradation takes place mainly in this subcellular compartment in yeast.

The nuclear localized, multi-subunit COP9 complex (or COP9 signalosome) is a key developmental modulator involved in repression of photomorphogenesis. In an effort to further define the molecular actions of the COP9 complex, a yeast two hybrid interactive screen was undertaken to identify proteins that could directly interact with one subunit of this complex, namely FUS6/COP11. This screen identified one specific interactive protein, AtS9, that is likely the Arabidopsis non-ATPase S9 (subunit 9) of the 19S regulatory complex from the 26S proteasome. AtS9 specifically interacts with FUS6/COP11 via the C-terminal domain of FUS6/COP11, which is distinct from the N-terminal domain necessary for FUS6/COP11 to interact with itself. As anticipated, AtS9 is not a member of the COP9 complex, but tightly associates with an ATPase subunit of the Arabidopsis 19S proteasome regulatory complex, AtS6A. Since all three proteins, FUS6/COP11, AtS9, and AtS6A, are present as complexed forms in vivo, the observed interaction implies that the COP9 complex may directly interact with the 19S regulatory complex of the 26S proteasome or other potential AtS9-containing complex. This notion is consistent with the parallel tissue-specific expression patterns and the similar, predominantly nuclear localization of both the COP9 complex and the AtS9 protein.

Whether hsp90 acts in an ATP-dependent or independent way is of crucial importance for understanding the molecular mechanism of this chaperone and, to day, the involvement of ATP hydrolysis in hsp90 function is still a controversial subject. ATPase activities may be detected in partially purified hsp90's preparations from rabbit muscle. We demonstrate that the major contaminant associated with hsp90 is the p97 fusion protein and that these oligomeric structures are copurifying together with the 20S proteasome and its PA28 activator. Improving the purification procedure permits to separate hsp90 and p97 to homogeneity. Then, our attempts failed to detect any significant ATPase activity in the hsp90 fraction. Thus, p97 would be principally responsible for the ATPase activity detected in partially purified hsp90 preparations from rabbit muscle.

The cDNA coding for a non-ATPase S2 subunit of the 26S proteasome from Entamoeba histolytica was cloned from a cDNA library (EhS2). The open reading frame has 2529 bp and the deduced amino acid sequence encodes a protein with a calculated molecular mass of 92,000 Da. EhS2 has 29-35% identity with the three other known S2 subunit sequences of yeasts and humans.
