The expression region of this recombinant Human PSMB8 covers amino acids 73-276. The expected molecular weight for the PSMB8 protein is calculated to be 42.7 kDa. This protein is generated in a e.coli-based system. The PSMB8 coding gene included the N-terminal 10xHis-SUMO tag and C-terminal Myc tag, which simplifies the detection and purification processes of the recombinant PSMB8 protein in following stages of expression and purification.The proteasome subunit beta type-8 (PSMB8) is a subunit of the immunoproteasome, a specialized form of the proteasome involved in antigen presentation. The immunoproteasome plays a crucial role in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigen processing pathway, generating peptides for presentation on the cell surface to cytotoxic T lymphocytes. PSMB8 is specifically incorporated into the immunoproteasome, influencing its catalytic properties and enhancing the production of peptides for MHC class I molecules. Research on PSMB8 is significant in understanding immune responses, inflammatory processes, and autoimmune diseases. Dysregulation of PSMB8 has been implicated in various autoimmune conditions, highlighting its potential as a target for therapeutic interventions aimed at modulating immune responses.

Target Function
The proteasome is a multicatalytic proteinase complex which is characterized by its ability to cleave peptides with Arg, Phe, Tyr, Leu, and Glu adjacent to the leaving group at neutral or slightly basic pH. The proteasome has an ATP-dependent proteolytic activity. This subunit is involved in antigen processing to generate class I binding peptides. Replacement of PSMB5 by PSMB8 increases the capacity of the immunoproteasome to cleave model peptides after hydrophobic and basic residues. Involved in the generation of spliced peptides resulting from the ligation of two separate proteasomal cleavage products that are not contiguous in the parental protein. Acts as a major component of interferon gamma-induced sensitivity. Plays a key role in apoptosis via the degradation of the apoptotic inhibitor MCL1. May be involved in the inflammatory response pathway. In cancer cells, substitution of isoform 1 (E2) by isoform 2 (E1) results in immunoproteasome deficiency. Required for the differentiation of preadipocytes into adipocytes.

Target Background
The proteasome is a multicatalytic proteinase complex with a highly ordered ring-shaped 20S core structure. The core structure is composed of 4 rings of 28 non-identical subunits; 2 rings are composed of 7 alpha subunits and 2 rings are composed of 7 beta subunits. Proteasomes are distributed throughout eukaryotic cells at a high concentration and cleave peptides in an ATP/ubiquitin-dependent process in a non-lysosomal pathway. An essential function of a modified proteasome, the immunoproteasome, is the processing of class I MHC peptides. This gene encodes a member of the proteasome B-type family, also known as the T1B family, that is a 20S core beta subunit. This gene is located in the class II region of the MHC (major histocompatibility complex). Expression of this gene is induced by gamma interferon and this gene product replaces catalytic subunit 3 (proteasome beta 5 subunit) in the immunoproteasome. Proteolytic processing is required to generate a mature subunit. Two alternative transcripts encoding two isoforms have been identified; both isoforms are processed to yield the same mature subunit.
