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.

ATPase AAA; 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.

Hypothetical protein; Protein modifier that is covalently attached to lysine residues of substrate proteins, thereby targeting them for proteasomal degradation. The tagging system is termed pupylation. Belongs to the prokaryotic ubiquitin-like protein family.

ABC transporter ATP-binding protein; Derived by Prodigal V2.6.2 analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.

Membrane protein; Derived by Prodigal V2.6.2 analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.

Pup--protein ligase; Catalyzes the covalent attachment of the prokaryotic ubiquitin-like protein modifier Pup to the proteasomal substrate proteins, thereby targeting them for proteasomal degradation. This tagging system is termed pupylation. The ligation reaction involves the side-chain carboxylate of the C-terminal glutamate of Pup and the side- chain amino group of a substrate lysine.

Proteasome component; Derived by Prodigal V2.6.2 analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.

NADPH:quinone oxidoreductase; Derived by Prodigal V2.6.2 analysis using gene prediction method: Protein Homology.

Molybdopterin biosynthesis protein; Catalyzes the insertion of molybdate into adenylated molybdopterin with the concomitant release of AMP. Belongs to the MoeA family.
