Popis: In the present work, changes in the subunit composition, phosphorylation state, and enzymatic activities of 26S proteasomes undergoing programmed cell death were studied. Apoptosis in proerythroleukemic K562 cells was induced by the glutathione-depleting agent, diethylmaleate (DEM). We have shown for the first time that proteasomes isolated from the nuclei of control and apoptotic K562 cells differ in their subunit patterns, as well as in the phosphorylation state of subunits on threonine and tyrosine residues. As well, the trypsin-and chymotrypsin-like activities of nuclear proteasomes and the specificity of proteasomal nucleolysis of several individual messenger RNAs (c-fos and c-myc) were found to change under DEM action in K562 cells. DEM treatment of K562 cells led to a modification of proteasomal zeta/α5 and iota/α6 subunits associated with RNase activity. The obtained results argue in favor of changes of proteasomal subunit composition, phosphorylation state, and enzymatic activities, i.e., indicate the so-called reprogramming of the nuclear proteasome population during induced apoptosis in K562 cells.
