Abstract

Proteasome assembly The proteasome is a large proteolytic machine that degrades ubiquitin-tagged proteins. Substrates are recognized and unfolded by the regulatory particle (RP) and translocated into a central proteolytic chamber called the core particle (CP) where degradation takes place. The CP associates with the RP at either one or both ends. The RP can be further subdivided into the base and lid. Two studies from Finley and colleagues elucidate the pathway of RP assembly. They report the identification of three molecular chaperones that assist in the assembly of the RP. Assembly of the base proceeds through a complex consisting of five proteins, called BP1, which functions as an intermediate in the process. These studies show that RP assembly is a highly orchestrated process.
