Gene information for PSMB4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5692
Official gene symbolPSMB4
Full nameproteasome (prosome, macropain) subunit, beta type, 4
Aliases,HN3,HsN3,PROS-26,PROS26,
Gene summaryThe proteasome is a multicatalytic proteinase complex with a highly ordered ring-shaped 20S core structure. The core structure is composed of 4 rings of 28 non-identical subunits; 2 rings are composed of 7 alpha subunits and 2 rings are composed of 7 beta subunits. Proteasomes are distributed throughout eukaryotic cells at a high concentration and cleave peptides in an ATP/ubiquitin-dependent process in a non-lysosomal pathway. An essential function of a modified proteasome, the immunoproteasome, is the processing of class I MHC peptides. This gene encodes a member of the proteasome B-type family, also known as the T1B family, that is a 20S core beta subunit. [provided by RefSeq]
