Proteasomes and Other Nanocompartmentalized Proteases of Archaea

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Complex Intracellular Structures in Prokaryotes

Part of the book series: Microbiology Monographs ((MICROMONO,volume 2))

Abstract

A growing number of proteases and peptidases have been identified that form large nanocompartmentalizedstructures in the cytosol, membrane, and extramembrane of cells. In archaea, these include the intracellularenergy-dependent proteasomes and the membrane-associated Lon protease as well as the intracellular energy-independenttetrahedral aminopeptidase (TET), tricorn peptidase (TRI), and PfpI-like proteases. Homologs of HtrA proteinsare also distributed in some archaea and may form nanocompartments that switch function from chaperone toprotease with increasing temperature. The location of these latter homologs remains to be determined.
