Degradation of cytosolic proteins depends largely
on the proteasome, and a fraction of the cleavage products are
presented as major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-bound
ligands at the cell surface of antigen presenting cells.
Proteolytic pathways accessory to the proteasome contribute to protein
turnover, and their up-regulation may complement the proteasome when
proteasomal proteolysis is impaired. Here we show that reduced reliance
on proteasomal proteolysis allowed a reduced efficiency of MHC class I
ligand production, whereas protein turnover and cellular proliferation were maintained. Using the proteasomal inhibitor
adamantane-acetyl-(6-aminohexanoyl)3-(leucinyl)3-vinyl-(methyl)-sulphone, we show that covalent inhibition of all three types of proteasomal -subunits ( 1, 2, and 5)
was compatible with continued growth in cells that up-regulate
accessory proteolytic pathways, which include cytosolic proteases as
well as deubiquitinating enzymes. However, under these conditions, we
observed poor assembly of H-2Db molecules and inhibited
presentation of endogenous tumor antigens. Thus, the tight link between
protein turnover and production of MHC class I ligands can be broken by
enforcing the substitution of the proteasome with alternative
proteolytic pathways.
