}The COP9 signalosome (CSN) is composed of eight distinct subunits and is highly homologous to the lid sub-complex of the 26S proteasome. CSN was initially defined as a repressor of photomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis, and it has now been found to participate in diverse cellular and developmental processes in various eukaryotic organisms. Recently, CSN was revealed to have a metalloprotease activity centered in the CSN5/Jab1 subunit, which removes the post-translational modification of a ubiquitin…

Consequences of COP9 signalosome and 26S proteasome interaction
- BiologyThe FEBS journal
- 2005
It is shown that the COP9 signalosome directly interacts with the 26S proteasome and competes with the lid, which has consequences for the peptidase activity of the 27S prote as well as the possible role of super‐complexes composed of the CSN, the 26s proteasomes and of Ub ligases in the regulation of protein stability.
