20S proteasome, beta subunit; Component of the proteasome core, a large protease complex with broad specificity involved in protein degradation. Belongs to the peptidase T1B family.

AAA family ATPase, pupylation-associated; 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; 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.

Conserved hypothetical protein.

Conserved 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.

Proteasome accessory factor PafA2.

NADPH:quinone reductase.

Conserved hypothetical protein.
