Abstract The degradation of denatured globin in reticulocyte lysates is markedly stimulated by ATP. This system has now been resolved into two components, designated fractions I and II, in the order of their elution from DEAE-cellulose. Fraction II has a neutral protease activity but is stimulated only slightly by ATP, whereas fraction I has no proteolytic activity but restores ATP-dependent proteolysis when combined with fraction II. The active principle of fraction I is remarkably heat-stable, but it is non-dialysable, precipitable with ammonium sulfate and it is destroyed by treatment with proteolytic enzymes. In gel filtration on Sephadex-G-75, it behaves as a single component with a molecular weight of approximately 9,000.read more

The 26S Proteasome: A Molecular Machine Designed for Controlled Proteolysis
TL;DR: In eukaryotic cells, most proteins in the cytosol and nucleus are degraded via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, and the 26S proteasome is a 2-MDa molecular machine built from approximately 31 different subunits, which catalyzes protein degradation.

TL;DR: The results show that PINK1-dependent phosphorylation of both parkin and ubiquitin is sufficient for full activation of parkin E3 activity, and demonstrate that phosphorylated ubiquit in is a parkin activator.
