Abstract
The 26S proteasome is a multi-subunit protein complex that is canonically known for its ability to degrade proteins in cells and maintain protein homeostasis. Non-canonical or non-proteolytic roles of proteasomal subunits exist but remain less well studied. We provide characterization of germline-specific functions of different 19S proteasome regulatory particle (RP) subunits in C. elegans using RNAi specifically from the L4 stage and through generation of endogenously tagged 19S RP lid subunit strains. We show functions for the 19S RP in regulation of proliferation and maintenance of integrity of mitotic zone nuclei, in polymerization of the synaptonemal complex (SC) onto meiotic chromosomes and in the timing of SC subunit redistribution to the short arm of the bivalent, and in turnover of XND-1 proteins at late pachytene. Furthermore, we report that certain 19S RP subunits are required for proper germ line localization of WEE-1.3, a major meiotic kinase. Additionally, endogenous fluorescent labeling revealed that the two isoforms of the essential 19S RP proteasome subunit RPN-6.1 are expressed in a tissue-specific manner in the hermaphrodite. Also, we demonstrate that the 19S RP subunits RPN-6.1 and RPN-7 are crucial for the nuclear localization of the lid subunits RPN-8 and RPN-9 in oocytes, further supporting the ability to utilize the C. elegans germ line as a model to study proteasome assembly real-time. Collectively, our data support the premise that certain 19S RP proteasome subunits are playing tissue-specific roles, especially in the germ line. We propose C. elegans as a versatile multicellular model to study the diverse proteolytic and non-proteolytic roles that proteasome subunits play in vivo.

Abstract
1,2,4-Oxadiazole derivatives, a class of Nrf2-ARE activators, exert an extensive therapeutic effect on inflammation, cancer, neurodegeneration, and microbial infection. Among these analogues, DDO-7263 is the most potent Nrf2 activator and used as the core structure for bioactive probes to explore the precise mechanism. In this work, we obtained compound 7, a mimic of DDO-7263, and biotin-labeled and fluorescein-based probes, which exhibited homologous biological activities to DDO-7263, including activating Nrf2 and its downstream target genes, anti-oxidative stress, and anti-inflammatory effects. Affinity chromatography and mass analysis techniques revealed Rpn6 as the potential target protein regulating the Nrf2 signaling pathway. In vitro affinity experiments further confirmed that DDO-7263 upregulated Nrf2 through binding to Rpn6 to block the assembly of 26S proteasome and the subsequent degradation of ubiquitinated Nrf2. These results indicated that Rpn6 is a promising candidate target to activate the Nrf2 pathway for protecting cells and tissues from oxidative, electrophilic, and exogenous microbial stimulation.

Generation and identification of a conditional knockout allele for the PSMD11 gene in mice. BMC DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY 2021; 21:4. [PMID: 33517884 PMCID: PMC7849139 DOI: 10.1186/s12861-020-00233-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2020] [Accepted: 11/22/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Our previous study have shown that the PSMD11 protein was an important survival factor for cancer cells except for its key role in regulation of assembly and activity of the 26S proteasome. To further investigate the role of PSMD11 in carcinogenesis, we constructed a conditional exon 5 floxed allele of PSMD11 (PSMD11flx) in mice. RESULTS It was found that homozygous PSMD11 flx/flx mice showed normal and exhibited a normal life span and fertility, and showed roughly equivalent expression of PSMD11 in various tissues, suggesting that the floxed allele maintained the wild-type function. Cre recombinase could induce efficient knockout of the floxed PSMD11 allele both in vitro and in vivo. Mice with constitutive single allele deletion of PSMD11 derived from intercrossing between PSMD11flx/flx and CMV-Cre mice were all viable and fertile, and showed apparent growth retardation, suggesting that PSMD11 played a significant role in the development of mice pre- or postnatally. No whole-body PSMD11 deficient embryos (PSMD11-/-) were identified in E7.5-8.5 embryos in uteros, indicating that double allele knockout of PSMD11 leads to early embryonic lethality. To avoid embryonic lethality produced by whole-body PSMD11 deletion, we further developed conditional PSMD11 global knockout mice with genotype Flp;FSF-R26CAG - CreERT2/+; PSMD11 flx/flx, and demonstrated that PSMD11 could be depleted in a temporal and tissue-specific manner. Meanwhile, it was found that depletion of PSMD11 could induce massive apoptosis in MEFs. CONCLUSIONS In summary, our data demonstrated that we have successfully generated a conditional knockout allele of PSMD11 in mice, and found that PSMD11 played a key role in early and postnatal development in mice, the PSMD11 flx/flx mice will be an invaluable tool to explore the functions of PSMD11 in development and diseases.

Proteome profiling and vector yield optimization in a recombinant adeno-associated virus-producing yeast model. Microbiologyopen 2020; 9:e1136.

Abstract
Recent studies on recombinant adeno‐associated viral (rAAV) vector production demonstrated the generation of infectious viral particles in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Proof‐of‐concept results showed low vector yields that correlated with low AAV DNA encapsidation rates. In an attempt to understand the host cell response to rAAV production, we profiled proteomic changes throughout the fermentation process by mass spectrometry. By comparing an rAAV‐producing yeast strain with a respective non‐producer control, we identified a subset of yeast host proteins with significantly different expression patterns during the rAAV induction period. Gene ontology enrichment and network interaction analyses identified changes in expression patterns associated mainly with protein folding, as well as amino acid metabolism, gluconeogenesis, and stress response. Specific fold change patterns of heat shock proteins and other stress protein markers suggested the occurrence of a cytosolic unfolded protein response during rAAV protein expression. Also, a correlative increase in proteins involved in response to oxidative stress suggested cellular activities to ameliorate the effects of reactive oxygen species or other oxidants. We tested the functional relevance of the identified host proteins by overexpressing selected protein leads using low‐ and high‐copy number plasmids. Increased vector yields up to threefold were observed in clones where proteins SSA1, SSE1, SSE2, CCP1, GTT1, and RVB2 were overexpressed. Recombinant expression of SSA1 and YDJ insect homologues (HSP40 and HSC70, respectively) in Sf9 cells led to a volumetric vector yield increase of 50% relative to control, which validated the importance of chaperone proteins in rAAV‐producing systems. Overall, these results highlight the utility of proteomic‐based tools for the understanding and optimization of rAAV‐producing recombinant strains.

Abstract
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a progressive multifactorial age-related neurodegenerative disorder that causes the majority of deaths due to dementia in the elderly. Although various risk factors have been found to be associated with AD progression, the cause of the disease is still unresolved. The loss of proteostasis is one of the major causes of AD: it is evident by aggregation of misfolded proteins, lipid homeostasis disruption, accumulation of autophagic vesicles, and oxidative damage during the disease progression. Different models have been developed to study AD, one of which is a yeast model. Yeasts are simple unicellular eukaryotic cells that have provided great insights into human cell biology. Various yeast models, including unmodified and genetically modified yeasts, have been established for studying AD and have provided significant amount of information on AD pathology and potential interventions. The conservation of various human biological processes, including signal transduction, energy metabolism, protein homeostasis, stress responses, oxidative phosphorylation, vesicle trafficking, apoptosis, endocytosis, and ageing, renders yeast a fascinating, powerful model for AD. In addition, the easy manipulation of the yeast genome and availability of methods to evaluate yeast cells rapidly in high throughput technological platforms strengthen the rationale of using yeast as a model. This review focuses on the description of the proteostasis network in yeast and its comparison with the human proteostasis network. It further elaborates on the AD-associated proteostasis failure and applications of the yeast proteostasis network to understand AD pathology and its potential to guide interventions against AD.

Abstract
The causative agent of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has infected millions and killed hundreds of thousands of people worldwide, highlighting an urgent need to develop antiviral therapies. Here we present a quantitative mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomics survey of SARS-CoV-2 infection in Vero E6 cells, revealing dramatic rewiring of phosphorylation on host and viral proteins. SARS-CoV-2 infection promoted casein kinase II (CK2) and p38 MAPK activation, production of diverse cytokines, and shutdown of mitotic kinases, resulting in cell cycle arrest. Infection also stimulated a marked induction of CK2-containing filopodial protrusions possessing budding viral particles. Eighty-seven drugs and compounds were identified by mapping global phosphorylation profiles to dysregulated kinases and pathways. We found pharmacologic inhibition of the p38, CK2, CDK, AXL, and PIKFYVE kinases to possess antiviral efficacy, representing potential COVID-19 therapies.

Abstract
A considerable number of essential cellular proteins have no catalytic activity and serve instead as structural components to aid in assembling protein complexes. For example, the assembly and function of the 26S proteasome, the major enzymatic complex necessary for ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation, require a number of essential protein contacts to associate the 19S regulatory particle with the 20S core particle. Previously, small molecule inhibitors of the active sites of the 20S core particle have been developed, but the activity of the 26S proteasome could also be altered via the disruption of its assembly. We were interested in discovering a small molecule binder of Rpn-6, as it is among several essential proteins that facilitate 26S assembly, which could be used to further our understanding of the association of the 19S regulatory particle with the 20S core particle. Additionally, we were interested in whether a small molecule-Rpn-6 interaction could potentially be cytotoxic to cancer cells that rely heavily on proteasome activity for survival. A workflow for utilizing a one-bead, one-compound library and a thermal shift assay was developed to discover such a molecule. TXS-8, our lead hit, was discovered to have a low micromolar binding affinity for Rpn-6 as well as very limited binding to other proteins. The cytotoxicity of TXS-8 was evaluated in several cell lines, revealing increased cytotoxicity to hematological cancers. Discovery of this peptoid binder of Rpn-6 provides the initial evidence that Rpn-6 could be a druggable target to affect protein degradation and serves as a primary scaffold from which to design more potent binders. We suspect that Rpn-6 could have additional essential roles beyond that of a molecular clamp of the proteasome to help hematological cancer cells survive and that TXS-8 can serve as a useful tool for further elucidating its roles.

Abstract
Amyloids are fibrous protein assemblies that are often described as irreversible and intrinsically pathogenic. However, yeast cells employ amyloid-like assemblies of the RNA-binding protein Rim4 to control translation during meiosis. Here, we show that multi-site phosphorylation of Rim4 is critical for its regulated disassembly and degradation and that failure to clear Rim4 assemblies interferes with meiotic progression. Furthermore, we identify the protein kinase Ime2 to bring about Rim4 clearance via phosphorylation of Rim4's intrinsically disordered region. Rim4 phosphorylation leads to reversal of its amyloid-like properties and degradation by the proteasome. Our data support a model in which a threshold amount of phosphorylation, rather than modification of critical residues, is required for Rim4 clearance. Our results further demonstrate that at least some amyloid-like assemblies are not as irreversible as previously thought. We propose that the natural pathways by which cells process these structures could be deployed to act on disease-related amyloids.

Abstract
The proteasome is an intracellular protease complex consisting of the 20S catalytic core and its associated regulators, including the 19S complex, PA28αβ, PA28γ, PA200, and PI31. Inhibition of the proteasome induces autoregulatory de novo formation of 20S and 26S proteasome complexes. Formation of alternative proteasome complexes, however, has not been investigated so far. We here show that catalytic proteasome inhibition results in fast recruitment of PA28γ and PA200 to 20S and 26S proteasomes within 2-6 h. Rapid formation of alternative proteasome complexes did not involve transcriptional activation of PA28γ and PA200 but rather recruitment of preexisting activators to 20S and 26S proteasome complexes. Recruitment of proteasomal activators depended on the extent of active site inhibition of the proteasome with inhibition of β5 active sites being sufficient for inducing recruitment. Moreover, specific inhibition of 26S proteasome activity via siRNA-mediated knockdown of the 19S subunit RPN6 induced recruitment of only PA200 to 20S proteasomes, whereas PA28γ was not mobilized. Here, formation of alternative PA200 complexes involved transcriptional activation of the activator. Alternative proteasome complexes persisted when cells had regained proteasome activity after pulse exposure to proteasome inhibitors. Knockdown of PA28γ sensitized cells to proteasome inhibitor-mediated growth arrest. Thus, formation of alternative proteasome complexes appears to be a formerly unrecognized but integral part of the cellular response to impaired proteasome function and altered proteostasis.

Abstract
Deletion of phenylalanine 508 of the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) is the major cause of Cystic Fibrosis (CF), one of the most common inherited childhood diseases. The mutated CFTR anion channel is not fully glycosylated and shows minimal activity in bronchial epithelial cells of CF patients. Low temperature or inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACi) can partially rescue ΔF508 CFTR cellular processing defects and function. A favorable change of ΔF508 CFTR protein-protein interactions was proposed as mechanism of rescue, however CFTR interactome dynamics during temperature-shift and HDACi rescue are unknown. Here, we report the first comprehensive analysis of the wt and ΔF508 CFTR interactome and its dynamics during temperature shift and HDACi. By using a novel deep proteomic analysis method (CoPIT), we identified 638 individual high-confidence CFTR interactors and discovered a mutation-specific interactome, which is extensively remodeled upon rescue. Detailed analysis of the interactome remodeling identified key novel interactors, whose loss promoted enhanced CFTR channel function in primary CF epithelia or which were critical for normal CFTR biogenesis. Our results demonstrate that global remodeling of ΔF508 CFTR interactions is crucial for rescue, and provide comprehensive insight into the molecular disease mechanisms of CF caused by deletion of F508.

Abstract
The lignocellulose degradation capacity of filamentous fungi has been widely studied because of their cellulase hypersecretion. The p24 proteins in eukaryotes serve important functions in this secretory pathway. However, little is known about the functions of the p24 proteins in filamentous fungi. In this study, four p24 proteins were identified in Penicillium oxalicum. Six p24 double-deletion strains were constructed, and further studies were carried out with the ΔerpΔpδ strain. The experimental results suggested that Erp and Pδ form a p24 heterodimer in vivo. This p24 heterodimer participates in important morphogenetic events, including sporulation, hyphal growth, and lateral branching. The results suggested that the p24 heterodimer mediates protein transport, particularly that of cellobiohydrolase. Analysis of the intracellular proteome revealed that the ΔerpΔpδ double mutant is under secretion stress due to attempts to remove proteins that are jammed in the endomembrane system. These results suggest that the p24 heterodimer participates in morphogenesis and protein transport. Compared with P. oxalicum Δerp, a greater number of cellular physiological pathways were impaired in ΔerpΔpδ. This finding may provide new insights into the secretory pathways of filamentous fungi.

Abstract
The ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) is the main ATP-dependent protein degradation pathway in the cytosol and nucleus of eukaryotic cells. At its centre is the 26S proteasome, which degrades regulatory proteins and misfolded or damaged proteins. In a major breakthrough, several groups have determined high-resolution structures of the entire 26S proteasome particle in different nucleotide conditions and with and without substrate using cryo-electron microscopy combined with other techniques. These structures provide some surprising insights into the functional mechanism of the proteasome and will give invaluable guidance for genetic and biochemical studies of this key regulatory system.

Abstract
FOXO transcription factors are conserved regulators of longevity downstream of insulin signaling. These transcription factors integrate signals emanating from nutrient deprivation and stress stimuli to coordinate programs of genes involved in cellular metabolism and resistance to oxidative stress. Here, we discuss emerging evidence for a pivotal role of FOXO factors in promoting the expression of genes involved in autophagy and the ubiquitin-proteasome system--two cell clearance processes that are essential for maintaining organelle and protein homeostasis (proteostasis). The ability of FOXO to maintain cellular quality control appears to be critical in processes and pathologies where damaged proteins and organelles accumulate, including aging and neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
p53 and its major E3 ligase Mdm2 are both ubiquitinated and targeted to the proteasome for degradation. Despite the importance of this in regulating the p53 pathway, little is known about the mechanisms of proteasomal recognition of ubiquitinated p53 and Mdm2. In this study, we show that knockdown of the proteasomal ubiquitin receptor S5a/PSMD4/Rpn10 inhibits p53 protein degradation and results in the accumulation of ubiquitinated p53. Overexpression of a dominant-negative deletion of S5a lacking its ubiquitin-interacting motifs (UIM)s, but which can be incorporated into the proteasome, also causes the stabilization of p53. Furthermore, small-interferring RNA (siRNA) rescue experiments confirm that the UIMs of S5a are required for the maintenance of low p53 levels. These observations indicate that S5a participates in the recognition of ubiquitinated p53 by the proteasome. In contrast, targeting S5a has no effect on the rate of degradation of Mdm2, indicating that proteasomal recognition of Mdm2 can be mediated by an S5a-independent pathway. S5a knockdown results in an increase in the transcriptional activity of p53. The selective stabilization of p53 and not Mdm2 provides a mechanism for p53 activation. Depletion of S5a causes a p53-dependent decrease in cell proliferation, demonstrating that p53 can have a dominant role in the response to targeting S5a. This study provides evidence for alternative pathways of proteasomal recognition of p53 and Mdm2. Differences in recognition by the proteasome could provide a means to modulate the relative stability of p53 and Mdm2 in response to cellular signals. In addition, they could be exploited for p53-activating therapies. This work shows that the degradation of proteins by the proteasome can be selectively dependent on S5a in human cells, and that this selectivity can extend to an E3 ubiquitin ligase and its substrate.

RPN-6 determines C. elegans longevity under proteotoxic stress conditions. Nature 2012; 489:263-8.

Abstract
Organisms that protect their germ-cell lineages from damage often do so at considerable cost: limited metabolic resources become partitioned away from maintenance of the soma, leaving the ageing somatic tissues to navigate survival amid an environment containing damaged and poorly functioning proteins. Historically, experimental paradigms that limit reproductive investment result in lifespan extension. We proposed that germline-deficient animals might exhibit heightened protection from proteotoxic stressors in somatic tissues. We find that the forced re-investment of resources from the germ line to the soma in Caenorhabditis elegans results in elevated somatic proteasome activity, clearance of damaged proteins and increased longevity. This activity is associated with increased expression of rpn-6, a subunit of the 19S proteasome, by the FOXO transcription factor DAF-16. Ectopic expression of rpn-6 is sufficient to confer proteotoxic stress resistance and extend lifespan, indicating that rpn-6 is a candidate to correct deficiencies in age-related protein homeostasis disorders.

Abstract
Embryonic stem cells can replicate continuously in the absence of senescence and, therefore, are immortal in culture. Although genome stability is essential for the survival of stem cells, proteome stability may have an equally important role in stem-cell identity and function. Furthermore, with the asymmetric divisions invoked by stem cells, the passage of damaged proteins to daughter cells could potentially destroy the resulting lineage of cells. Therefore, a firm understanding of how stem cells maintain their proteome is of central importance. Here we show that human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) exhibit high proteasome activity that is correlated with increased levels of the 19S proteasome subunit PSMD11 (known as RPN-6 in Caenorhabditis elegans) and a corresponding increased assembly of the 26S/30S proteasome. Ectopic expression of PSMD11 is sufficient to increase proteasome assembly and activity. FOXO4, an insulin/insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) responsive transcription factor associated with long lifespan in invertebrates, regulates proteasome activity by modulating the expression of PSMD11 in hESCs. Proteasome inhibition in hESCs affects the expression of pluripotency markers and the levels of specific markers of the distinct germ layers. Our results suggest a new regulation of proteostasis in hESCs that links longevity and stress resistance in invertebrates to hESC function and identity.

Abstract
The proteasome is the major non-lysosomal proteolytic machine in cells that, through degradation of ubiquitylated substrates, regulates virtually all cellular functions. Numerous accessory proteins influence the activity of the proteasome by recruiting or deubiquitylating proteasomal substrates, or by maintaining the integrity of the complex. Here we show that the ubiquitin specific protease (USP)-4, a deubiquitylating enzyme with specificity for both Lys48 and Lys63 ubiquitin chains, interacts with the S9/Rpn6 subunit of the proteasome via an internal ubiquitin-like (UBL) domain. S9/Rpn6 acts as a molecular clamp that holds together the proteasomal core and regulatory sub-complexes. Thus, the interaction with USP4 may regulate the structure and function of the proteasome or the turnover of specific proteasomal substrates.

Abstract
The ubiquitin-proteasomal system is an essential element of the protein quality control machinery in cells. The central part of this system is the 20S proteasome. The proteasome is a barrel-shaped multienzyme complex, containing several active centers hidden at the inner surface of the hollow cylinder. So, the regulation of the substrate entry toward the inner proteasomal surface is a key control mechanism of the activity of this protease. This chapter outlines the knowledge on the structure of the subunits of the 20S proteasome, the binding and structure of some proteasomal regulators and inducible proteasomal subunits. Therefore, this chapter imparts the knowledge on proteasomal structure which is required for the understanding of the following chapters.

Abstract
Proteasomes execute the degradation of most cellular proteins. Although the 20S core particle (CP) has been studied in great detail, the structure of the 19S regulatory particle (RP), which prepares ubiquitylated substrates for degradation, has remained elusive. Here, we report the crystal structure of one of the RP subunits, Rpn6, and we describe its integration into the cryo-EM density map of the 26S holocomplex at 9.1 Å resolution. Rpn6 consists of an α-solenoid-like fold and a proteasome COP9/signalosome eIF3 (PCI) module in a right-handed suprahelical configuration. Highly conserved surface areas of Rpn6 interact with the conserved surfaces of the Pre8 (alpha2) and Rpt6 subunits from the alpha and ATPase rings, respectively. The structure suggests that Rpn6 has a pivotal role in stabilizing the otherwise weak interaction between the CP and the RP.

Abstract
The proteasomal lid subunit Rpn11 is essential for maintaining a correct cell cycle and mitochondrial morphology in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In this paper, we show that the rpn11-m1 mutant has a peculiar cell cycle defect reminiscent of mutants defective in the FEAR pathway that delay the release of the Cdc14 protein phosphatase from the nucleolus. We analyzed the rpn11-m1 phenotypes and found that overexpression of Cdc14 suppresses all the rpn11-m1 defects, including the mitochondrial ones. Suppression by Cdc14 of the rpn11-m1 mitochondrial morphology defect reveals an uncharacterized connection between mitochondrial and cell cycle events. Interestingly, the overexpression of Cdc14 also partially restores the tubular network in an Δmmm2 strain, which lacks a mitochondrial protein belonging to the complex necessary to anchor the mitochondrion to the actin cytoskeleton. Altogether our findings indicate, for the first time, a cross-talk between the cell cycle and mitochondrial morphology.

Abstract
The epaulette shark (Hemiscyllium ocellatum) represents an ancestral vertebrate model of episodic hypoxia and anoxia tolerance at tropical temperatures. We used two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry-based proteomics approaches, combined with a suite of physiological measures, to characterize this species' responses to 1) one episode of anoxia plus normoxic recovery, 2) one episode of severe hypoxia plus recovery, or 3) two episodes of severe hypoxia plus recovery. We examined these responses in the cerebellum and rectal gland, two tissues with high ATP requirements. Sharks maintained plasma ionic homeostasis following all treatments, and activities of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and caspase 3/7 in both tissues were unchanged. Oxygen lack and reoxygenation elicited subtle adjustments in the proteome. Hypoxia led to more extensive proteome responses than anoxia in both tissues. The cerebellum and rectal gland exhibited treatment-specific responses to oxygen limitation consistent with one or more of several strategies: 1) neurotransmitter and receptor downregulation in cerebellum to prevent excitotoxicity, 2) cytoskeletal/membrane reorganization, 3) metabolic reorganization and more efficient intracellular energy shuttling that are more consistent with sustained ATP turnover than with long-term metabolic depression, 4) detoxification of metabolic byproducts and oxidative stress in light of continued metabolic activity, particularly following hypoxia in rectal gland, and 5) activation of prosurvival signaling. We hypothesize that neuronal morphological changes facilitate prolonged protection from excitotoxicity via dendritic spine remodeling in cerebellum (i.e., synaptic structural plasticity). These results recapitulate several highly conserved themes in the anoxia and hypoxia tolerance, preconditioning, and oxidative stress literature in a single system. In addition, several of the identified pathways and proteins suggest potentially novel mechanisms for enhancing anoxia or hypoxia tolerance in vertebrates. Overall, our data show that episodic hypoxic or anoxic exposure and recovery in the epaulette shark amplifies a constitutive suite of compensatory mechanisms that further prepares them for subsequent insults.

Abstract
In eukaryotic cells, degradation of most intracellular proteins is realized by proteasomes. The substrates for proteolysis are selected by the fact that the gate to the proteolytic chamber of the proteasome is usually closed, and only proteins carrying a special "label" can get into it. A polyubiquitin chain plays the role of the "label": degradation affects proteins conjugated with a ubiquitin (Ub) chain that consists at minimum of four molecules. Upon entering the proteasome channel, the polypeptide chain of the protein unfolds and stretches along it, being hydrolyzed to short peptides. Ubiquitin per se does not get into the proteasome, but, after destruction of the "labeled" molecule, it is released and labels another molecule. This process has been named "Ub-dependent protein degradation". In this review we systematize current data on the Ub-proteasome system, describe in detail proteasome structure, the ubiquitination system, and the classical ATP/Ub-dependent mechanism of protein degradation, as well as try to focus readers' attention on the existence of alternative mechanisms of proteasomal degradation and processing of proteins. Data on damages of the proteasome system that lead to the development of different diseases are given separately.

Abstract
26S proteasomes consist of cylindrical 20S proteasomes with 19S regulatory complexes attached to the ends. Treatment with high concentrations of salt causes the regulatory complexes to separate into two sub-complexes, the base, which is in contact with the 20S proteasome, and the lid, which is the distal part of the 19S complex. Here, we describe two assembly intermediates of the human regulatory complex. One is a dimer of the two ATPase subunits, Rpt3 and Rpt6. The other is a complex of nascent Rpn2, Rpn10, Rpn11, Rpn13, and Txnl1, attached to preexisting 20S proteasomes. This early assembly complex does not yet contain Rpn1 or any of the ATPase subunits of the base. Thus, assembly of 19S regulatory complexes takes place on preexisting 20S proteasomes, and part of the lid is assembled before the base.

Abstract
The 26S proteasome, the central enzyme of the ubiquitin-proteasome system, is comprised of the 20S catalytic core particle (CP) and the 19S regulatory particle (RP), itself composed of two subcomplexes, the base and the lid. 20S proteasome assembly is assisted by several chaperones. Integral subunits of the RP participate in its assembly, but no external factors have been identified so far. Here we characterize the yeast Hsm3 protein, which displays unique features regarding 19S assembly. Hsm3 associates with 19S subcomplexes via a carboxy-terminal domain of the Rpt1 base subunit but is missing in the final 26S proteasome. Moreover, Hsm3 is specifically required for the base subcomplex assembly. Finally, we identify the putative species-specific 19S subunit S5b as a functional homolog of the Hsm3 chaperone in mammals. These findings shed light on chaperone-assisted proteasome assembly in eukaryotes.

Abstract
A fertilised Caenorhabditis elegans embryo shows an invariable pattern of cell division and forms a multicellular body where each cell locates to a defined position. Mitotic spindle orientation is determined by several preceding events including the migration of duplicated centrosomes on a nucleus and the rotation of nuclear-centrosome complex. Cell polarity is the dominant force driving nuclear-centrosome rotation and setting the mitotic spindle axis in parallel with the polarity axis during asymmetric cell division. It is reasonable that there is no nuclear-centrosome rotation in symmetrically dividing blastomeres, but the mechanism(s) which suppress rotation in these cells have been proposed because the rotations occur in some polarity defect embryos. Here we show the nuclear-centrosome rotation can be induced by depletion of RPN-2, a regulatory subunit of the proteasome. In these embryos, cell polarity is established normally and both asymmetrically and symmetrically dividing cells are generated through asymmetric cell divisions. The nuclear-centrosome rotations occurred normally in the asymmetrically dividing cell lineage, but also induced in symmetrically dividing daughter cells. Interestingly, we identified RPN-2 as a binding protein of PKC-3, one of critical elements for establishing cell polarity during early asymmetric cell divisions. In addition to asymmetrically dividing cells, PKC-3 is also expressed in symmetrically dividing cells and a role to suppress nuclear-centrosome rotation has been anticipated. Our data suggest that the expression of RPN-2 is involved in the mechanism to suppress nuclear-centrosome rotation in symmetrically dividing cells and it may work in cooperation with PKC-3.

Abstract
Proteasomes are large multisubunit, multicatalytic proteases responsible for most of the cytosolic and nuclear protein degradation, and their structure and functions are conserved in eukaryotes. Proteasomes were originally identified as the proteolytic module of the ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis pathway. Today we know that proteasomes also mediate ubiquitin-independent proteolysis, that they have RNAse activity, and play a non-proteolytic role in transcriptional regulation. Here we present an overview of the current knowledge of proteasome function and regulation in plants and highlight the role of proteasome-dependent protein degradation in the control of plant development and responses to the environment.

Abstract
The 26S proteasome (26SP) is a multi-subunit, multi-catalytic protease that is responsible for most of the cytosolic and nuclear protein turnover. The 26SP is composed of two sub-particles, the 19S regulatory particle (RP) that binds and unfolds protein targets, and the 20S core particle (20SP) that degrades proteins into small peptides. Most 26SP targets are conjugated to a poly-ubiquitin (Ub) chain that serves as a degradation signal. However, some targets, such as oxidized proteins, do not require a poly-Ub tag for proteasomal degradation, and recent studies have shown that the main protease in this Ub-independent pathway is free 20SP. It is currently unknown how the ratio of 26SP- to 20SP-dependent proteolysis is controlled. Here we show that loss of function of the Arabidopsis RP subunits RPT2a, RPN10 and RPN12a leads to decreased 26SP accumulation, resulting in reduced rates of Ub-dependent proteolysis. In contrast, all three RP mutants have increased 20SP levels and thus enhanced Ub-independent protein degradation. As a consequence of this shift in proteolytic activity, mutant seedlings are hypersensitive to stresses that cause protein misfolding, and have increased tolerance to treatments that promote protein oxidation. Taken together, the data show that plant cells increase 20SP-dependent proteolysis when 26SP activity is impaired.

Abstract
The general transcription factor TFIIB, encoded by SUA7 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is required for transcription activation but apparently of a specific subset of genes, for example, linked with mitochondrial activity and hence with oxidative environments. Therefore, studying SUA7/TFIIB as a potential target of oxidative stress is fundamental. We found that controlled SUA7 expression under oxidative conditions occurs at transcriptional and mRNA stability levels. Both regulatory events are associated with the transcription activator Yap1 in distinct ways: Yap1 affects SUA7 transcription up regulation in exponentially growing cells facing oxidative signals; the absence of this activator per se contributes to increase SUA7 mRNA stability. However, unlike SUA7 mRNA, TFIIB abundance is not altered on oxidative signals. The biological impact of this preferential regulation of SUA7 mRNA pool is revealed by the partial suppression of cellular oxidative sensitivity by SUA7 overexpression, and supported by the insights on the existence of a novel RNA-binding factor, acting as an oxidative sensor, which regulates mRNA stability. Taken together the results point out a primarily cellular commitment to guarantee SUA7 mRNA levels under oxidative environments.

Abstract
Proteasome is a major protease of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway involved in the regulation of practically all intracellular biochemical processes. The enzyme core is created by a heteromultimer of complex architecture built with multiple subunits arranged into a tube-like structure. The multiple active sites of diverse peptidase specificity are hidden inside the tube. Access to the interior is guarded by a gate formed by the N-termini of specialized subunits and by the attachment of additional multisubunit protein complexes controlling the enzymatic capabilities of the core. Proteasome, due to its Byzantine molecular architecture and equally sophisticated enzymatic mechanism, is by itself a fascinating biophysical object. Recently, the position of the protease advanced from an academically remarkable protein processor to a providential anticancer drug target and futuristic nanomachine. Proteomics studies actively shape our current understanding of the protease and direct the future applications of the proteasome in medicine.

Abstract
Rpn6p is a component of the lid of the 26 S proteasome. We isolated and analyzed two temperature-sensitive rpn6 mutants in the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Both mutants showed defects in protein degradation in vivo. However, the affinity-purified 26 S proteasome of the rpn6 mutants grown at the permissive temperature degraded polyubiquitinated Sic1p efficiently, even at a higher temperature. Interestingly, their enzyme activity was even higher at a higher temperature, indicating that once made mutant proteasomes are stable and have little defect in the proteolytic function. These results suggest that the deficiency in protein degradation observed in vivo is rather due to a defect in the assembly of a holoenzyme at the restrictive temperature. Indeed, both rpn6 mutants grown at the restrictive temperature were defective in assembling the 26 S proteasome. A striking feature of the rpn6 mutants at the restrictive temperature was that there appeared a protein complex composed of only four of the nine lid components, Rpn5p, Rpn8p, Rpn9p, and Rpn11p. Altogether, we conclude that Rpn6p is essential for the integrity/assembly of the lid in the sense that it is necessary for the incorporation of Rpn3p, Rpn7p, Rpn12p, and Sem1p (Rpn15p) into the lid, thereby playing an essential role in the proper function of the 26 S proteasome.

Abstract
Degradation of polyubiquitinated proteins by the proteasome often requires accessory factors; these include receptor proteins that bind both polyubiquitin chains and the regulatory particle of the proteasome. Overproduction of one such factor, Dsk2, is lethal in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and we show here that this lethality can be suppressed by mutations in SEM1, a gene previously recognized as an ortholog of the human gene encoding DSS1, which binds the BRCA2 DNA repair protein. Yeast sem1 mutants accumulate polyubiquitinated proteins, are defective for proteasome-mediated degradation and cannot grow under various stress conditions. Moreover, sem1 is synthetically lethal with mutations in proteasome subunits. We show that Sem1 is a component of the regulatory particle of the proteasome, specifically the lid subcomplex. Loss of Sem1 impairs the stability of the 26S proteasome and sem1Δ defects are greatly enhanced by simultaneous deletion of RPN10. The Rpn10 proteasome subunit appears to function with Sem1 in maintaining the association of the lid and base subcomplexes of the regulatory particle. Our data suggest a potential mechanism for this protein-protein stabilization and also suggest that an intact proteasomal regulatory particle is required for responses to DNA damage.

Abstract
The 26 S proteasome, which catalyzes degradation of polyubiquitinated proteins, is composed of the 20 S proteasome and the 19 S regulatory particle (RP). The RP is composed of the lid and base subcomplexes and regulates the catalytic activity of the 20 S proteasome. In this study, we carried out affinity purification of the lid and base subcomplexes from the tagged strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and we found that the lid contains a small molecular mass protein, Sem1. The Sem1 protein binds with the 26 S proteasome isolated from a mutant with deletion of SEM1 but not with the 26 S proteasome from the wild type. The lid lacking Sem1 is unstable at a high salt concentration. The 19 S RP was immunoprecipitated together with Sem1 by immunoprecipitation using hemagglutinin epitope-tagged Sem1 as bait. Degradation of polyubiquitinated proteins in vivo or in vitro is impaired in the Sem1-deficient 26 S proteasome. In addition, genetic interaction between SEM1 and RPN10 was detected. The human Sem1 homologue hDSS1 was found to be a functional homologue of Sem1 and capable of interacting with the human 26 S proteasome. The results suggest that Sem1, possibly hDSS1, is a novel subunit of the 26 S proteasome and plays a role in ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis.

Abstract
Rpn7 is one of the lid subunits of the 26 S proteasome regulatory particle. The RPN7 gene is known to be essential, but its function remains to be elucidated. To explore the function of Rpn7, we isolated and characterized temperature-sensitive rpn7 mutants. All of the rpn7 mutants obtained accumulated poly-ubiquitinated proteins when grown at the restrictive temperature. The N-end rule substrate (Ub-Arg-beta-galactosidase), the UFD pathway substrate (Ub-Pro-beta-galactosidase), and cell cycle regulators (Pds1 and Clb2) were found to be stabilized in experiments using one of the rpn7 mutants termed rpn7-3 at the restrictive temperature, indicating its defect in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Subsequent analysis of the structure of the 26 S proteasome in rpn7-3 cells suggested that the defect was in the assembly of the 26 S holoenzyme. The most striking characteristic of the proteasome of the rpn7-3 mutant was that a lid subcomplex affinity-purified from the rpn7-3 cells grown at the restrictive temperature contained only 5 of the 8 lid components, a phenomenon that has not been reported in the previously isolated lid mutants. From these results, we concluded that Rpn7 is required for the integrity of the 26 S complex by establishing a correct lid structure.

Abstract
Proper function of the 26 S proteasome requires assembly of the regulatory complex, which is composed of the lid and base subcomplexes. We characterized Rpn5, a lid subunit, in fission yeast. We show that Rpn5 associates with the proteasome rpn5. Deletion (rpn5Delta) exacerbates the growth defects in proteasome mutants, leading to mitotic abnormalities, which correlate with accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins, such as Cut2/securin. Rpn5 expression is tightly controlled; both overexpression and deletion of rpn5 impair proteasome functions. The proteasome is assembled around the inner nuclear membrane in wild-type cells; however, in rpn5Delta cells, proteasome subunits are improperly assembled and/or localized. In the lid mutants, Rpn5 is mislocalized in the cytosol, while in the base mutants, Rpn5 can enter the nucleus, but is left in the nucleoplasm, and not assembled into the nuclear membrane. These results suggest that Rpn5 is a dosage-dependent proteasome regulator and plays a role in mediating proper proteasome assembly. Moreover, the Rpn5 assembly may be a cooperative process that involves at least two steps: 1) nuclear import and 2) subsequent assembly into the nuclear membrane. The former step requires other components of the lid, while the latter requires the base. Human Rpn5 rescues the phenotypes associated with rpn5Delta and is incorporated into the yeast proteasome, suggesting that Rpn5 functions are highly conserved.

Abstract
The S13 subunit (also called Pad1, Rpn11, and MPR1) is a component of the 19S complex, a regulatory complex essential for the ubiquitin-dependent proteolytic activity of the 26S proteasome. To address the functional role of S13, we combined double-stranded RNA interference (RNAi) against the Drosophila proteasome subunit DmS13 with expression of wild-type and mutant forms of the homologous human gene, HS13. These studies show that DmS13 is essential for 26S function. Loss of the S13 subunit in metazoan cells leads to increased levels of ubiquitin conjugates, cell cycle defects, DNA overreplication, and apoptosis. In vivo assays using short-lived proteasome substrates confirmed that the 26S ubiquitin-dependent degradation pathway is compromised in S13-depleted cells. In complementation experiments using Drosophila cell lines expressing HS13, wild-type HS13 was found to fully rescue the knockdown phenotype after DmS13 RNAi treatment, while an HS13 containing mutations (H113A-H115A) in the proposed isopeptidase active site was unable to rescue. A mutation within the conserved MPN/JAMM domain (C120A) abolished the ability of HS13 to rescue the Drosophila cells from apoptosis or DNA overreplication. However, the C120A mutant was found to partially restore normal levels of ubiquitin conjugates. The S13 subunit may possess multiple functions, including a deubiquitinylating activity and distinct activities essential for cell cycle progression that require the conserved C120 residue.
