Proteins with this domain are found in proteasome regulatory subunits, eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3) subunits and regulators of transcription factors. This domain is known as the MPN domain [3] and PAD-1-like domain [4], JABP1 domain [5] or JAMM domain [7]. These are metalloenzymes that function as the ubiquitin isopeptidase/ deubiquitinase in the ubiquitin-based signalling and protein turnover pathways in eukaryotes [7]. Versions of the domain in prokaryotic cognates of the ubiquitin-modification pathway are shown to have a similar role, and the archaeal protein from Haloferax volcanii is found to cleave ubiquitin-like small archaeal modifier proteins (SAMP1/2) from protein conjugates [8,9].
This family contains a number of ubiquitin-like proteins: SUMO (smt3 homologue) (see Swiss:Q02724), Nedd8 (see Swiss:P29595), Elongin B (see Swiss:Q15370), Rub1 (see Swiss:Q9SHE7), and Parkin (see Swiss:O60260). A number of them are thought to carry ...
This family contains a number of ubiquitin-like proteins: SUMO (smt3 homologue) (see Swiss:Q02724), Nedd8 (see Swiss:P29595), Elongin B (see Swiss:Q15370), Rub1 (see Swiss:Q9SHE7), and Parkin (see Swiss:O60260). A number of them are thought to carry a distinctive five-residue motif termed the proteasome-interacting motif (PIM), which may have a biologically significant role in protein delivery to proteasomes and recruitment of proteasomes to transcription sites [5].
