Abstract excerpt
Proteasomes are highly complex proteases responsible for selective protein degradation in the eukaryotic cell. 26 S proteasomes consist of two regulatory 19 S cap complexes and the 20 S proteasome, which acts as the proteolytic core module. We isolated six mutants of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing mutations in the 20 S proteasome beta-type subunit Pre3. Three mutations (pre3-2, pre3-3, and pre3-5)...
