Proteasome accessory factor PafA.

Proteasome subunit alpha; Component of the proteasome core, a large protease complex with broad specificity involved in protein degradation. Belongs to the peptidase T1A family.

Ubiquitin-like protein Pup; Protein modifier that is covalently attached to lysine residues of substrate proteins, thereby targeting them for proteasomal degradation. The tagging system is termed pupylation.

Proteasome subunit beta; Component of the proteasome core, a large protease complex with broad specificity involved in protein degradation. Belongs to the peptidase T1B family.

Proteasome-associated ATPase; ATPase which is responsible for recognizing, binding, unfolding and translocation of pupylated proteins into the bacterial 20S proteasome core particle. May be essential for opening the gate of the 20S proteasome via an interaction with its C-terminus, thereby allowing substrate entry and access to the site of proteolysis. Thus, the C-termini of the proteasomal ATPase may function like a 'key in a lock' to induce gate opening and therefore regulate proteolysis.

Proteasome accessory factor PafA.

Preprotein translocase SecY; The central subunit of the protein translocation channel SecYEG. Consists of two halves formed by TMs 1-5 and 6-10. These two domains form a lateral gate at the front which open onto the bilayer between TMs 2 and 7, and are clamped together by SecE at the back. The channel is closed by both a pore ring composed of hydrophobic SecY resides and a short helix (helix 2A) on the extracellular side of the membrane which forms a plug. The plug probably moves laterally to allow the channel to open. The ring and the pore may move independently.
