Good evidence exists that the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) plays an important role in degradation of mitochondrial proteins and membrane proteins associated with mitochondria (MAM proteins). Mitochondria contain all components of the ubiquitin-conjugating system, which are necessary for the attachment of ubiquitin molecules to target proteins, subjected to subsequent degradation in proteasomes. An important stage in the delivery of proteins for proteolytic degradation in proteasomes is their interaction with ubiquitin receptors located on the regulatory subunit (19S) of the proteasome: the Rpn10 or Rpn13 subunit. These subunits make basically the same contribution to the subsequent translocation of target proteins to the core part of the proteasome. A comparative study of mouse brain mitochondrial subproteomes bound to Rpn10 and Rpn13 subunits revealed a high specificity of the repertoire of Rpn10 and Rpn13-binding proteins. Moreover, proteins, for which mitochondrial localization or association with mitochondrial membranes was previously shown, prevailed in the case of using the Rpn13 subunit as an affinity ligand (Rpn13-binding proteins). This suggests that Rpn10 and Rpn13 play different roles in the degradation of mitochondrial proteins and MAM.

The ubiquitin receptors RPN10 and RPN13 harbor multiple activities including ubiquitin binding; however, solid evidence connecting a particular activity to specific in vivo functions is scarce. Through complementation, the ubiquitin-binding site-truncated Arabidopsis RPN10 (N215) rescued the growth defects of , supporting the idea that the ubiquitin-binding ability of RPN10 is dispensable and N215, which harbors a vWA domain, is fully functional. Instead, a structural role played by RPN10 in the 26S proteasomes is likely vital in vivo.

Stress conditions can cause the relocalization of proteasomes to condensates in yeast and mammalian cells. The interactions that facilitate the formation of proteasome condensates, however, are unclear. Here, we show that the formation of proteasome condensates in yeast depends on ubiquitin chains together with the proteasome shuttle factors Rad23 and Dsk2.

Ubiquitin like protein 5 (UBL5) interacts with other proteins to regulate their function but differs from ubiquitin and other UBLs because it does not form covalent conjugates. Ubiquitin and most UBLs mediate the degradation of target proteins through the 26S proteasome but it is not known if UBL5 can also do that. Here we found that the UBL5s of rice and Nicotiana benthamiana interacted with rice stripe virus (RSV) p3 protein.

Chemical crosslinking coupled with mass spectrometry (CXMS) has been increasingly used in structural biology. CXMS distance restraints are usually applied to Cα or Cβ atoms of the crosslinked residues, with upper bounds typically over 20 Å. The incorporation of loose CXMS restraints only marginally improves the resolution of the calculated structures.
