Abstract

ABSTRACTThe proteasome holoenzyme is a complex molecular machine that degrades most proteins. In the proteasome holoenzyme, six distinct ATPase subunits (Rpt1 through Rpt6) enable protein degradation by injecting protein substrates into it. Individual Rpt subunits assemble into a heterohexameric “Rpt ring” in a stepwise manner, by binding to their cognate chaperones. Completion of the heterohexameric Rpt ring correlates with release of a specific chaperone, Nas2, however it is unclear whether and how this event may ensure proper Rpt ring assembly. Here, we examined the action of Nas2 by capturing the poorly characterized, penultimate step of heterohexameric Rpt ring assembly. We show that Nas2 uses steric hindrance to block premature progression of the penultimate step into the final step of Rpt ring assembly. Importantly, Nas2 can activate an assembly checkpoint via its steric activity, when the last ATPase subunit, Rpt1, cannot be added in a timely manner. This checkpoint can be relieved via Nas2 release, when it recognizes proper addition of Rpt1 to one side of its cognate Rpt5, and ATP hydrolysis by Rpt4 on the other side of Rpt5, allowing completion of Rpt ring assembly. Our findings reveal dual criteria for Nas2 release, as a mechanism to ensure both the composition and functional competence of a newly assembled proteasomal ATPase, to generate the proteasome holoenzyme.
