Rpn4p acts as a transcription factor by binding to PACE, a nonamer box found upstream of 26S proteasomal and other genes in yeast. 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
We identified a new, unique upstream activating sequence (5'-GGTGGCAAA-3') in the promoters of 26 out of the 32 proteasomal yeast genes characterized to date, which we propose to call proteasome-associated control element. By using the one-hybrid method, we show that the factor binding to the proteasome-associated control element is Rpn4p, a protein containing a C2H2-type finger motif and two acidic domains. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays using proteasome-associated control element sequences from two regulatory proteasomal genes confirmed specific binding of purified Rpn4p to these sequences. The role of Rpn4p to function as a transregulator in yeast is corroborated by its ability of stimulating proteasome-associated control element-driven lacZ expression and by experiments using the RPT4 and RPT6 gene promoters coupled to the bacterial cat gene as a reporter. Additionally, we found the proteasome-associated control element to occur in a number of promoters to genes which are related to the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in yeast. 相似文献

Covalent modification of proteins with ubiquitin (Ub) is widely implicated in the control of protein function and fate. Over 100 deubiquitylating enzymes rapidly reverse this modification, posing challenges to the biochemical and biophysical characterization of ubiquitylated proteins. We circumvented this limitation with a synthetic biology approach of reconstructing the entire eukaryotic Ub cascade in bacteria. Co‐expression of affinity‐tagged substrates and Ub with E1, E2 and E3 enzymes allows efficient purification of ubiquitylated proteins in milligram quantity. Contrary to in‐vitro assays that lead to spurious modification of several lysine residues of Rpn10 (regulatory proteasomal non‐ATPase subunit), the reconstituted system faithfully recapitulates its monoubiquitylation on lysine 84 that is observed in vivo. Mass spectrometry revealed the ubiquitylation sites on the Mind bomb E3 ligase and the Ub receptors Rpn10 and Vps9. Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) analyses of ubiquitylated Vps9 purified from bacteria revealed that although ubiquitylation occurs on the Vps9‐GEF domain, it does not affect the guanine nucleotide exchanging factor (GEF) activity in vitro. Finally, we demonstrated that ubiquitylated Vps9 assumes a closed structure, which blocks additional Ub binding. Characterization of several ubiquitylated proteins demonstrated the integrity, specificity and fidelity of the system, and revealed new biological findings. 相似文献
