Proteasome ATPases unravel folded proteins. Introducing a sequence containing only glycine and alanine residues (GAr) into substrates can impair their digestion. We previously proposed that a GAr interferes with the unfolding capacity of the proteasome, leading to partial degradation of products. Here we tested that idea in several ways. Stabilizing or destabilizing a folded domain within substrate proteins changed GAr-mediated intermediate production in the way predicted by the model. A downstream folded domain determined the sites of terminal proteolysis. The spacing between a GAr and a folded domain was critical for intermediate production. Intermediates containing a GAr did not remain associated with proteasomes, excluding models whereby retained GAr-containing proteins halt further processing. The following model is supported: a GAr positioned within the ATPase ring reduces the efficiency of coupling between nucleotide hydrolysis and work performed on the substrate. If this impairment takes place when unfolding must be initiated, insertion pauses and proteolysis is limited to the portion of the substrate that has already entered the catalytic chamber of the proteasome. 相似文献

NF-κB与肿瘤发生及药物筛选 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
NF-κB是一类能特异性地识别结合DNA的Rel类蛋白质二聚体转录因子。在静息细胞中 ,NF-κB与抑制性蛋白IκBs结合形成复合物 ,并被滞留于细胞质中而处于非活化状态 ;当细胞受到各种胞内外刺激时 ,IκBs被迅速地降解 ,NF-κB得以释放并进入细胞核 ,从而发挥其转录调节功能。NF-κB通过调控众多靶基因的转录表达而在免疫、炎症反应、细胞增殖与凋亡及肿瘤发生等许多生理学过程中发挥重要作用。介绍了NF-κB活化的调控机制 ,并对NF-κB信号通路在肿瘤发生等相关过程及其在药物筛选中的作用进行了探讨。 相似文献

Polyubiquitin chains linked through Lys48 are the principal signal for targeting substrates to the 26S proteasome. Through studies of structurally defined, polyubiquitylated model substrates, we show that tetraubiquitin is the minimum signal for efficient proteasomal targeting. The mechanism of targeting involves a simple increase in substrate affinity that is brought about by autonomous binding of the polyubiquitin chain. Assigning the proteasomal signaling function to a specific polymeric unit explains how a single ubiquitin can act as a functionally distinct signal, for example in endocytosis. The properties of the substrates studied here implicate substrate unfolding as a kinetically dominant step in the proteolysis of properly folded proteins, and suggest that extraproteasomal chaperones are required for efficient degradation of certain proteasome substrates. 相似文献
