Overview of Gene Research
Psmb5, also known as Proteasome 20S subunit beta 5, is a primary subunit of the proteasome, which is involved in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, a major protein degradation system in cells. This pathway plays a crucial role in regulating various cellular processes such as protein quality control, cell cycle progression, and immune response [3,5].
Knockdown of Psmb5 has shown diverse effects. In a Drosophila model of fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), knockdown of Prosbeta5 (equivalent to PSMB5 in flies) suppressed CGG-associated neurodegeneration, and in human FMR1 premutation carriers, a variant associated with decreased Psmb5 expression was related to a delayed onset of FXTAS [2]. In hepatocellular carcinoma, silencing Psmb5 in Huh7 cells significantly suppressed cell proliferation and migration while increasing apoptosis, and also inhibited the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase/Akt/mechanistic target of rapamycin pathway [1]. In breast cancer, knockdown of Psmb5 in MDA-MB-231 cells inhibited cell growth and migration, and in THP-1 monocytes, it promoted differentiation into M1 macrophages [4].
In conclusion, Psmb5 is essential for the proper functioning of the proteasome and thus for numerous cellular processes. Model-based research, especially loss-of-function experiments, has revealed its role in neurodegenerative diseases like FXTAS and in cancer development and immunosuppression, highlighting its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target in these disease areas.
