Proteasome is a multi-subunit protease complex in eukaryocytes, and plays an important role in ubiquitin-proteosome pathway. Recombinant proteasome can be used to screen proteasome inhibitors. In this study, recombinant plasmid of pET28a-PSMB1 was constructed by inserting human proteasome catalytic subunit (PSMB1) cDNA (726 bp) into the prokaryotic expression vector pET28a(+), and transforming the plasmid into E. coli BL21(DE3) cells for expression. After overnight induction (1 mmol/L IPTG, 20 degrees C), an expected protein band with molecular weight of 27 kDa was observed on SDS-PAGE gel. The recombinant protein was then purified through affinity chromatography, and the purity is more than 95%. The amino acid sequence of the recombinant protein was validated by NanoLC-MS/MS. The data from in vitro BIAcore analysis showed that the recombinant PSMB1 could bind to celastrol. The binding affinity between PSMB1 and 10 micromol/L celastrol was more than 27RU.

Ketosis is a common metabolic disorder in high-yielding cows and is characterized by high concentrations of BHB and free fatty acids (FFA). High concentrations of FFA induce endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in multiple organs including mammary tissue, and result in reduced milk production and lower milk quality. In nonruminants, loss of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 1 (NFE2L1) results in ER stress.

Objective: Based on the recent evidence of IL-1 inhibition in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and concomitant type 2 diabetes (T2D), we evaluated the synovial tissue expression of IL-1 related genes in relationship to the ubiquitin-proteasome system and the effects of insulin on ubiquitinated proteins in fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs).
Methods: The synovial expression of IL-1 pathway genes was compared in early (< 1 year) treatment-naïve RA patients with T2D (RA/T2D n = 16) and age- and sex-matched RA patients without T2D (n = 16), enrolled in the Pathobiology of Early Arthritis Cohort (PEAC). The synovial expression of ubiquitin in macrophages and synovial lining fibroblasts was also assessed by Immunohistochemistry/immunofluorescence and correlated with synovial pathotypes.

Craniofacial dysmorphisms are among the most common birth defects. Proteasome mutations frequently result in craniofacial dysmorphisms, including lower jaw malformations; however, the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Here, we used a zebrafish proteasome subunit β 1 (psmb1) mutant to define the cellular mechanisms underlying proteasome mutation-induced craniofacial dysmorphisms.

The persistence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related hospitalization severely threatens medical systems worldwide and has increased the need for reliable detection of acute status and prediction of mortality. We applied a systems biology approach to discover acute-stage biomarkers that could predict mortality. A total 247 plasma samples were collected from 103 COVID-19 (52 surviving COVID-19 patients and 51 COVID-19 patients with mortality), 51 patients with other infectious diseases (IDCs) and 41 healthy controls (HCs).
