Abstract
The proteasome is a multicatalytic and multimeric protease component of the ubiquiitin-proteasome system (UPS). The proteasome is formed by a catalytic unit named 20S (20SPT) flanked or not by regulatory units, being the 19S the most abundant. When interacting to the 19S complex it is termed 26S proteasome (26SPT), responsible for the degradation of poly-ubiquitinylated proteins involved …
