PSMA4 proteasome 20S subunit alpha 4

Gene ID: 5685, updated on 14-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: HC9; PSC9; HsT17706

Summary

This gene encodes a core alpha subunit of the 20S proteosome, which is a highly ordered ring-shaped structure composed of four rings of 28 non-identical subunits. Proteasomes cleave peptides in an ATP- and ubiquitin-dependent manner. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]
