Activity Regulation ACTIVITY REGULATION: The formation of the proteasomal ATPase ARC-20S proteasome complex, likely via the docking of the C-termini of ARC into the intersubunit pockets in the alpha-rings, may trigger opening of the gate for substrate entry. Interconversion between the open-gate and close-gate conformations leads to a dynamic regulation of the 20S proteasome proteolysis activity (By similarity). PPS auto-regulates its own activity via pupylation and degradation of its components (PubMed:24986881). Peptidolytic activity is inhibited by N-acetyl-Leu-Leu-norleucinal (Ac-LLnL) in vitro (PubMed:9282749). {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00289, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24986881, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9282749}.

Enzyme Function FUNCTION: Component of the proteasome core, a large protease complex with broad specificity involved in protein degradation. The M.smegmatis proteasome is able to cleave oligopeptides after hydrophobic residues, thus displaying chymotrypsin-like activity. In complex with the ATPase Mpa, degrades protein targets conjugated to a prokaryotic ubiquitin-like protein (Pup). Identified substrates of the M.smegmatis proteasome are the pupylated SodA and Ino1 proteins (PubMed:19028679). The Pup-proteasome system (PPS) is essential for survival under starvation; PPS likely functions to recycle amino acids under nitrogen starvation, thereby enabling the cell to maintain basal metabolic activities (PubMed:24986881). {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00289, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19028679, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24986881, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9282749}.

Induction INDUCTION: Up-regulated under nitrogen starvation (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24986881}.
Subcellular Location SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_00289}.
Modified Residue
Post Translational Modification PTM: Pupylated at an undetermined lysine residue by the prokaryotic ubiquitin-like protein Pup with the help of the ligase PafA, which leads to its degradation by the proteasome and thereby constitutes a negative auto-regulation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24986881}.
