Streptomyces are best known for producing antimicrobial secondary metabolites, but they are also recognized for their contributions to biomass utilization. Despite their importance to carbon cycling… Expand
Affinity Purification of the Arabidopsis 26 S Proteasome Reveals a Diverse Array of Plant Proteolytic Complexes*
- A. Book, Nicholas P. Gladman, Sangsook Lee, Mark Scalf, L. M. Smith, R. Vierstra
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 1 June 2010
Selective proteolysis in plants is largely mediated by the ubiquitin (Ub)/proteasome system in which substrates, marked by the covalent attachment of Ub, are degraded by the 26 S proteasome. The 26 S… Expand
