ubiquitin-mediatedproteindegradation."
Ubiquitin-Dependent Degradation
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? Ubiquitin is a small (8.5 kDa, 76 residue) polypeptide that targetsmany intracellular proteins for degradation.
? Ubiquitin molecules are attached by non--peptide bonds formed
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
between the carboxyl terminal of ubiquitin and the -amino groups
of lysyl residues in the target protein.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? The residue present at its amino terminus affects whether a proteinis ubiquitinated.
? Amino terminal Met or Ser residues retard, whereas Asp or Arg
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
accelerate ubiquitination
? Attachment of a single ubiquitin molecule to transmembrane
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
proteins alters their subcellular localization and targets them fordegradation.
? Subsequent degradation of ubiquitin-tagged proteins takes place in
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
the proteasome, a macromolecule that also is ubiquitous in
eukaryotic cells.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Reactions in attachment of ubiquitin to proteins.
E1 - activating enzyme,
E2 - ligase, and
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
E3 - transferase? The terminal COOH of ubiquitin
first forms a thioester.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? The coupled hydrolysis of PPi bypyrophosphatase ensures that the
reaction will proceed readily.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? A thioester exchange reaction now
transfers activated ubiquitin to E2.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? E3 then catalyzes the transfer ofubiquitin to the -amino group of a
lysyl residue of the target protein.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? Additional
rounds
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
ofubiquitination result in subsequent
polyubiquitination
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Proteasome
? The proteasome consists
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
of a macromolecular,
cylindrical complex of
proteins, whose stacked
rings form a central pore
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
that harbors the activesites
of
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
proteolyticenzymes
? For degradation, a protein
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
thus must first enter the
central pore.
? Entry into the core is
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
regulated by the two outer rings
that recognize polyubiquitinated proteins .
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? The regulatory particle recognizes the ubiquitinated
protein which are unfolded by ATPases present in the
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
regulatory particles or caps.? Protease active sites in the core of the proteosome
attack peptide bonds and degrade the protein.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? Peptides are released into the cytosol for further
degradation by cytosolic peptidases.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? Both normally and abnormally folded proteins aresubstrates for the proteasome.
? Liberated ubiquitin molecules are recycled.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? The proteasome plays animportant role in presenting
small peptides produced by degradation of various
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
viruses and other molecules to MHC class I molecules,
a key step in antigen presentation to T lymphocytes
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? Genetic disorders that result from defects in the genesthat encode ubiquitin, ubiquitin ligases, or
deubiquitinating enzymes include

? Each vesicle has its own
set of coat proteins.
Vesicular Transport
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? Vesicular transport is the predominant mechanism for
exchange of proteins and lipids between membrane-
bound organelles in eukaryotic cells
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? This form of transport involves the movement of various
elements with the aid of the bubble like vesicles created
from the cell membrane
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? It is fundamentally divided into endocytosis and
exocytosis
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
? Endocytosis is divided into 3 distinct mechanismsPhagocytosis
Pinocytosis and

? The major mechanism of vesicular transport between ER
and Golgi.

? Takes place in the regions of the membranes known ascoated pits
? The coated pits has high concentration of protein

clarthrin and this mechanism of receptor mediated
endocytosis is the clarthin coated vesicle method
? However there is another method in which the receptor
