The eukaryotic 20S proteasome is the multifunctional catalytic core of the 26S proteasome, which plays a central role in intracellular protein degradation. Association of the 20S core with a regulatory subcomplex, termed PA700 (also known as the 19S cap), forms the 26S proteasome, which degrades ubiquitinated and nonubiquitinated proteins through an ATP-dependent process. Although proteolytic assistance by this regulatory particle is a general feature of proteasome-dependent turnover, the 20S proteasome itself can degrade some proteins directly, bypassing ubiquitination and PA700, as an alternative mechanism in vitro. The mechanism underlying this pathway is based on the ability of the 20S proteasome to recognize partially unfolded proteins. Here we show that the 20S proteasome recognizes the heat-denatured forms of model proteins such as citrate synthase, malate dehydrogenase. and glyceraldehydes-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and prevents their aggregation in vitro. This process was not followed by the refolding of these denatured substrates into their native states, whereas PA700 or the 26S proteasome generally promotes their reactivation. These results indicate that the 20S proteasome might play a role in maintaining denatured and misfolded substrates in a soluble state, thereby facilitating their refolding or degradation. 相似文献

The newly characterized cytokine IL-38 (IL-1F10) belongs to the IL-1 family of cytokines. Previous work has demonstrated that IL-38 inhibited Candida albicans-induced IL-17 production from peripheral blood mononuclear cells. However, it is still unclear whether IL-38 is an inflammatory or an anti-inflammatory cytokine. We generated anti-human IL-38 monoclonal antibodies in order to perform immunohistochemical staining and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. While human recombinant IL-38 protein was not cleaved by recombinant caspase-1, chymase, or PR3 in vitro, overexpression of IL-38 cDNA produced a soluble form of IL-38 protein. Furthermore, immunohistochemical analysis showed that synovial tissues obtained from RA patients strongly expressed IL-38 protein. To investigate the biological role of IL-38, C57BL/6 IL-38 gene-deficient (?/?) mice were used in an autoantibody-induced rheumatoid arthritis (RA) mouse model. As compared with control mice, IL-38 (?/?) mice showed greater disease severity, accompanied by higher IL-1β and IL-6 gene expression in the joints. Therefore, IL-38 acts as an inhibitor of the pathogenesis of autoantibody-induced arthritis in mice and may have a role in the development or progression of RA in humans. 相似文献

Protein O-linked mannose β1,2-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 1 (POMGnT1) is an enzyme that transfers N-acetylglucosamine to O-mannose of glycoproteins. Mutations of the POMGnT1 gene cause muscle–eye–brain (MEB) disease. To obtain a better understanding of the pathogenesis of MEB disease, we mutated the POMGnT1 gene in mice using a targeting technique. The mutant muscle showed aberrant glycosylation of α-DG, and α-DG from mutant muscle failed to bind laminin in a binding assay. POMGnT1?/? muscle showed minimal pathological changes with very low-serum creatine kinase levels, and had normally formed muscle basal lamina, but showed reduced muscle mass, reduced numbers of muscle fibers, and impaired muscle regeneration. Importantly, POMGnT1?/? satellite cells proliferated slowly, but efficiently differentiated into multinuclear myotubes in vitro. Transfer of a retrovirus vector-mediated POMGnT1 gene into POMGnT1?/? myoblasts completely restored the glycosylation of α-DG, but proliferation of the cells was not improved. Our results suggest that proper glycosylation of α-DG is important for maintenance of the proliferative activity of satellite cells in vivo. 相似文献
