Mouse zygote-specific proteasome assembly chaperone important for maternal-to-zygotic transition

Abstract: SummaryDuring the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT), maternal proteins in oocytes are degraded by the ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS), and new proteins are synthesized from the zygotic genome. However, the specific mechanisms underlying the UPS at the MZT are not well understood. We identified a molecule named zygote-specific proteasome assembly chaperone (ZPAC) that is specifically expressed in mouse gonads, and expression of ZPAC was transiently increased at the mouse MZT. ZPAC formed a complex with Ump… Show more

“…Irregular or incomplete activation of the embryonic genome will alter the processes required to direct normal embryo development. During MZT, the oocyte’s maternal mRNAs gradually undergo degradation along with gradual activation of the zygotic genes [ 45 ]. In this study, maternal degradation profiles differed between PBNT embryos with 2650 genes and BBNT embryos with 3822 genes;, 1515 genes were uniquely downregulated in BBNT embryos whereas there were 343 in PBNT embryos.…”

“…Additional trans -acting factors can also contribute. Proteins in the TRC/GET (transmembrane recognition complex in mammals/guided entry of tail-anchored proteins in yeast) pathway[65] and a zygote-specific proteasome assembly chaperone (ZPAC) in mouse[66] were shown to participate in eukaryotic CP assembly.…”

“…Whether all or part of the 33 proteasome subunits are induced is cell type‐dependent. All proteasome subunit genes are induced by activated Nrf1 after proteasome impairment (Radhakrishnan et al, ), whereas induction of a single subunit gene is sufficient for increasing proteasome activity in bone marrow stromal cells and embryonic stem cells (Lu et al, ; Shin et al, ; Vilchez, Boyer, et al, ). In the present study, functional proteasomes were remarkably induced by TCR stimulation, concomitant with the transcriptional up‐regulation of all proteasome subunits (Figure ).…”
