Electron microscopic localization of the multicatalytic proteinase complex in rat liver and in cultured cells

AJ Rivett, A Palmer and E Knecht

Department of Biochemistry, University of Leicester, United Kingdom.

The multicatalytic proteinase (MCP) prosome or proteasome is a large multifunctional complex which is believed to play a major role in non- lysosomal pathways of intracellular protein degradation and has recently been implicated in antigen processing. In this study, affinity- purified antibodies against rat liver MCP were used to investigate the localization of the proteinase both in rat liver and in growing human L- 132 cells in culture, using electron microscopic immunogold techniques. Quantitation of the MCP in different subcellular localizations by morphometric analysis of electron micrographs showed the proportion in the nucleus to be 17% for hepatocytes and 51% for L-132 cells, demonstrating differences in the distribution of MCP in different cell types. In hepatocytes, 14% of the total MCP was found associated with the endoplasmic reticulum. The remainder was localized in the cytoplasmic matrix. Immunofluorescence studies with L-132 cells also showed a reaction in nuclei and cytoplasm. The localization of MCP is consistent with its proposed multiple functions in protein turnover, in the production of peptides for antigen presentation, and in RNA processing.
