The ubiquitin ligase Hul5 was recently identified as a component of the proteasome, a multisubunit protease that degrades ubiquitin-protein conjugates. We report here a proteasome-dependent conjugating activity of Hul5 that endows proteasomes with the capacity to extend ubiquitin chains. hul5 mutants show reduced degradation of multiple proteasome substrates in vivo, suggesting that the polyubiquitin...
Ubiquitin chains serve as a recognition motif for the proteasome, a multisubunit protease, which degrades its substrates into polypeptides while releasing ubiquitin for reuse. Yeast proteasomes contain two deubiquitinating enzymes, Ubp6 and Rpn11. Rpn11 promotes protein breakdown through its degradation-coupled activity. In contrast, we show here that Ubp6 has the capacity to delay the degradation...
We describe the isolation of a cDNA encoding Arabidopsis thaliana ISU1 (AtISU1), which regulates iron homeostasis in the mitochondria. The AtISU1 gene contained an open reading frame that encoded 167 amino acid residues. Northern blot analysis demonstrated that AtISU1 gene was ubiquitously expressed in plant tissues examined. The yeast seo5-1, which harbors a single base-pair deletion in ScISU1, is...
Nob1p, which interacts with Nin1p/Rpn12, a subunit of the 19S regulatory particle (RP) of the yeast 26S proteasome, has been identified by two-hybrid screening. NOB1 was found to be an essential gene, encoding a protein of 459 amino acid residues. Nob1p was detected in growing cells but not in cells in the stationary phase. During the transition to the stationary phase, Nob1p was degraded, at least...
