High impact information on RPT6

  • The fusion proteins glutathione S-transferase (GST)-Rad23 and Rad4-haemagglutinin (HA), and the proteasome subunits Cim3 and Cim5, cofractionate through consecutive chromatography steps [1].
  • Mutations in SUG1 were isolated as suppressors of a mutation in the transcriptional activation domain of GAL4 [2].
  • Our observations account for the reduced ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis in sug1 mutants and suggest that the effects of sug1 mutations on transcription are indirect results of defective proteolysis [2].
  • Sug1 is a member of a large, highly conserved family of ATPases, implying a role for ATP hydrolysis in the activation of transcription [3].
  • Here, we demonstrate that proteasomal ATPases Rpt4 and Rpt6 function to connect these two histone modifications [4].
 

Biological context of RPT6

 

Associations of RPT6 with chemical compounds

  • The substituted 6-chloro-2-pyrones are slowly hydrolyzed in the presence of CRL1 and are pseudosubstrates of CRL3, but are simple reversible inhibitors of pancreatic cholesterol esterase[8]
  • Inhibition of CRL3 by substituted 6-chloro-2-pyrones was competitive with binding of the substrate p-nitrophenyl butyrate [8].
  • Molecular modeling studies suggest that the orientation of binding of these inhibitors at the active site of CRL3 can vary but that the pyrone ring consistently occupies a position close to the active site serine [8].
 

Physical interactions of RPT6

 

Regulatory relationships of RPT6

  • Surprisingly, the overall structure of the PRS2 gene was found to be identical to that of the suppressor scl1+ gene restoring the SCL1-1 mutation that suppresses crl3 cycloheximide-resistant, temperature-sensitive lethality [10].
 

Other interactions of RPT6

  • The 201-residue amino-terminal region of UFD4 is essential for its binding to RPT4 and RPT6 [11].
  • Sug1 and Sug2 are two of six ATPases in the 19S regulatory particle of the 26S proteasome [12].
  • Furthermore, chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis revealed the recruitment of Sug1, Sug2 and Cim5 (another of the ATPases), but not 20S proteasome core proteins, to the promoters of these genes [12].
  • SUG2 and SUG1, another 19 S component, were originally discovered as a mutation able to suppress the phenotype of a Gal4 truncation mutant (Gal4(D)p) lacking much of its AD [9].
  • In contrast, proteasome-defective rpt6/cim3 mutants accumulate polyubiquitinated Gpa1, and in this case the protein exhibits cytoplasmic localization [13].
