Background: Heterozygous immunoproteasome subunit beta-type 10 (PSMB10) mutations can cause severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) and Omenn syndrome (OS). Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in these patients is associated with severe complications and poor immune reconstitution, often resulting in death.
Objective: To perform immunological and molecular characterization of an infant with a PSMB10 heterozygous variant.

Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are remarkable for the high activity level of ubiquitin-proteasome system-the molecular machinery of protein degradation in the cell. Various forms of the proteasome complexes comprising different subunits and interacting regulators are responsible for the substrate selectivity and degradation. Immunoproteasomes are amongst these forms which play an important role in antigen presentation; however, a body of recent evidence suggests their functions in pluripotent stem cells.

The ubiquitin/proteasome system (UPS) plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular protein homeostasis. The catalytic activity of proteasome in the UPS is regulated by β1 (PSMB6), β2 (PSMB7), and β5 (PSMB5) subunits. Interferon (IFN)-γ, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, inflammation, and oxidative stress can induce the replacement of β1, β2, and β5 with their respective immuno-subunits β1i (PSMB9), β2i (PSMB10), and β5i (PSMB8), which can be assembled into the immunoproteasome.

Mutations in proteasome β-subunits or their chaperone and regulatory proteins are associated with proteasome-associated autoinflammatory disorders (PRAAS). We studied six unrelated infants with three de novo heterozygous missense variants in PSMB10, encoding the proteasome β2i-subunit. Individuals presented with T-B-NK± severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) and clinical features suggestive of Omenn syndrome, including diarrhea, alopecia, and desquamating erythematous rash.

Aims/hypothesis: The inflammatory milieu characteristic of insulitis affects translation fidelity and generates defective ribosomal products (DRiPs) that participate in autoimmune beta cell destruction in type 1 diabetes. Here, we studied the role of early innate cytokines (IFNα) and late immune adaptive events (IFNɣ) in insulin DRiP-derived peptide presentation to diabetogenic CD8+ T cells.
Methods: Single-cell transcriptomics of human pancreatic islets was used to study the composition of the (immuno)proteasome.
