Homobelactosin C bound to the yeast 20S proteasome
Overview
Most class I MHC ligands are generated from the vast majority of cellular, proteins by proteolysis within the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and are, presented on the cell surface by MHC class I molecules. Here, we present, the crystallographic analysis of yeast 20S proteasome in complex with the, inhibitor homobelactosin C. The structure reveals a unique, inhibitor-binding mode and provides information about the composition of, proteasomal primed substrate-binding sites. IFN-gamma inducible, substitution of proteasomal constitutive subunits by immunosubunits, modulates characteristics of generated peptides, thus producing fragments, with higher preference for binding to MHC class I molecules. The, structural data for the proteasome:homobelactosin C complex provide an, explanation for involvement of immunosubunits in antigen generation and, open perspectives for rational design of ligands, inhibiting exclusively, constitutive proteasomes or immunoproteasomes.
