| Abstract | Proteasomes can be markedly activated by associating with 19S regulatory complexes to form the 26S protease or by binding 11S protein complexes known as REG or PA28. Three REG subunits, α, β, and γ, have been expressed in Escherichia coli, and each recombinant protein can activate human proteasomes. Combining PCR mutagenesis with an in vitro activity assay, we have isolated and characterized 36 inactive, single-site mutants of recombinant REGα. Most are monomers that produce functional proteasome activators when mixed with REGβ subunits. Five REGα mutants that remain inactive in the mixing assay contain amino acid substitutions clustered between Arg-141 and Gly-149. The crystal structure of the REGα heptamer shows that this region forms a loop at the base of each REGα subunit. One mutation in this loop (N146Y) yields a REGα heptamer that binds the proteasome as tightly as wild-type REGα but does not activate peptide hydrolysis. Corresponding amino acid substitutions in REGβ (N135Y) and REGγ (N151Y) produce inactive proteins that also bind the proteasome and inhibit proteasome activation by their normal counterparts. Our studies clearly demonstrate that REG binding to the proteasome can be separated from activation of the enzyme. Moreover, the dominant negative REGs identified here should prove valuable for elucidating the role(s) of these proteins in antigen presentation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
