Description
The 20S proteasome is the major proteolytic enzyme complex involved in intracellular protein degradation. PA700, PA28, and PA200 are three major protein complexes that function as activators of the 20S proteasome. There are three evolutionarily conserved subunits of PA28: PA28a (PSME1), PA28b (PSME2), and PA28g (PSME3) (1,2). PA28a and PA28b form a heteroheptameric complex and function by binding to the 20S complex at its opening site(s). The PA28a/b complex is present throughout the cell and participates in MHC class I antigen presentation by promoting the generation of antigenic peptides from foreign proteins (2). PA28g exists in the form of a homoheptamer and is mainly located in the nucleus. The PA28g complex exerts its function by binding and guiding specific nuclear target proteins to the 20S proteasome for further degradation (3,4)
