Abstract excerpt
Proteasomes are highly conserved macromolecular structures which function as endopeptidases. They are found in the cytoplasm and nucleus of eukaryotic tissues and consist of at least 14 non-identical subunits with molecular masses ranging from approximately 20 to 32K. Proteasomes are essential in the selective degradation of ubiquitinated and certain non-ubiquitinated proteins, acting as the proteolytic core of...
