Abstract:
:Proteasomes were purified from human hepatoma tissues, and their sensitivities to Na+ and K+ were examined. At concentrations of 10 mM or more, these cations were found to inhibit completely polylysine-activated casein degradation by the purified proteasomes. They also strongly inhibited the hydrolyses of peptides, although to a lesser extent. On the other hand, they reversed the inhibitory and stimulatory effects of polylysine on the hydrolyses of Suc-Leu-Tyr-AMC and Cbz-Ala-Arg-Arg-MNA, respectively. These results suggest that Na+ and/or K+ may be involved in the regulation of intracellular protein breakdown by controlling the multicatalytic activity of proteasomes.
