Product Specs

Introduction
PSMB4, a member of the peptidase T1B family, is a beta subunit of the 20S Proteasome. The 20S Proteasome chamber comprises structural alpha subunits and primarily catalytic beta subunits, arranged in two external rings of seven alpha subunits each and two internal rings of seven beta subunits each. PSMB4 is abundantly distributed throughout eukaryotic cells and participates in the ATP/ubiquitin-dependent degradation of peptides via a non-lysosomal pathway.
Description
Recombinant Human PSMB4, produced in E. coli, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain encompassing amino acids 46-264 (240 a.a.) and possessing a molecular weight of 26.6 kDa. This protein is expressed with an N-terminal 21 amino acid His-tag and purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
Clear, colorless solution, sterile-filtered.
Formulation
The PSMB4 protein solution (0.5 mg/ml) is supplied in a buffer consisting of 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 100 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT, and 30% glycerol.

Product Science Overview

Introduction

Proteasome Subunit Beta Type 4 (PSMB4) is a crucial component of the proteasome complex, which plays a vital role in the degradation of intracellular proteins. This article delves into the structure, function, and significance of PSMB4, particularly focusing on its human recombinant form.

Structure and Composition

The proteasome is a multicatalytic proteinase complex with a highly ordered 20S core structure. This core is composed of four rings of 28 non-identical subunits: two rings consist of seven alpha subunits, and two rings consist of seven beta subunits . PSMB4 is one of these beta subunits, specifically known as the 20S core beta subunit .

The human PSMB4 protein is composed of 219 amino acids and has a molecular weight of approximately 23 kDa . It is encoded by the PSMB4 gene located on chromosome 1q21 .

Function

PSMB4 is a non-catalytic component of the 20S core proteasome complex . The proteasome complex is responsible for the proteolytic degradation of most intracellular proteins, which is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis . This degradation process is ATP/ubiquitin-dependent and occurs in a non-lysosomal pathway .

The proteasome complex, including PSMB4, plays a critical role in various cellular processes such as:

  • Protein Quality Control: Degrading damaged or misfolded proteins to prevent their accumulation.
  • Regulation of Biological Processes: Degrading key regulatory proteins to control various cellular functions.
  • Immune Response: Processing class I MHC peptides through the immunoproteasome .
Significance of Human Recombinant PSMB4

Recombinant PSMB4 is produced using recombinant DNA technology, which allows for the expression of the human PSMB4 protein in various host systems. This recombinant form is essential for research and therapeutic applications, including:

  • Structural Studies: Understanding the detailed structure of PSMB4 and its interactions within the proteasome complex.
  • Functional Assays: Investigating the specific roles and mechanisms of PSMB4 in proteasome activity.
  • Drug Development: Screening for potential inhibitors or modulators of proteasome activity for therapeutic purposes.
Clinical Relevance

Mutations or dysregulation of PSMB4 have been associated with various diseases, including Proteasome-Associated Autoinflammatory Syndromes (PRAAS) and certain cancers . Understanding the function and regulation of PSMB4 is crucial for developing targeted therapies for these conditions.
