Proteasome B-type subunit signature and profile

Description:

The proteasome (or macropain) (EC 3.4.25.1) [1,2,3,4,5,E1] is an eukaryotic and archaebacterial multicatalytic proteinase complex that seems to be involved in an ATP/ubiquitin-dependent nonlysosomal proteolytic pathway. In eukaryotes the proteasome is composed of about 28 distinct subunits which form a highly ordered ring-shaped structure (20S ring) of about 700 Kd.

Most proteasome subunits can be classified, on the basis on sequence similarities into two groups, A and B. Subunits that belong to the B-type group are proteins of from 190 to 290 amino acids that share a number of conserved sequence regions. Subunits that are known to belong to this family are listed below.

  • Vertebrate subunits C5, β, delta, epsilon, theta (C10-II), LMP2/RING12, C13 (LMP7/RING10), C7-I and MECL-1.
  • Yeast PRE1, PRE2 (PRG1), PRE3, PRE4, PRS3, PUP1 and PUP3.
  • Drosophila L(3)73AI.
  • Fission yeast pts1.
  • Thermoplasma acidophilum β-subunit. In this archaebacteria the proteasome is composed of only two different subunits.

As a signature pattern for proteasome B-type subunits we selected the best conserved region, which is located in the N-terminal part of these proteins. We also have developed a profile which covers the whole conserved region.

Note:

These proteins belong to family T1 in the classification of peptidases [6,E2].
