Proteasome subunit beta type-7, Macropain chain Z, Multicatalytic endopeptidase complex chain Z, Proteasome subunit Z, PSMB7, Z.

Proteasome subunit beta type-7 (PSMB7) belongs to the proteasome B-type family. PSMB7 is a multicatalytic proteinase complex with an extremely ordered ring-shaped 20S core structure. This core structure is comprised of 4 rings of 28 non-identical subunits; 2 rings are comprised of 7 alpha subunits and 2 rings are comprised of 7 beta subunits. Proteasomes are scattered all over eukaryotic cells at a high concentration and cleave peptides in an ATP/ubiquitin-dependent manner in a non-lysosomal pathway. The processing of class I MHC peptides is a vital function of the immunoproteasome (which is a modified proteasome).

PSMB7 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 255 amino acids (44-277) and having a molecular mass of 27.6kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear higher).
PSMB7 is fused to a 21 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
