Mechanisms of Ub-independent ODC recognition and translocation by the 26S proteasome revealing proteasome's functional adaptability

Kaijian Chen, Yanxing Wang, Xingyan Ye…·Yao Cong

This study reveals the mechanism by which the 26S proteasome recognizes and degrades ODC without ubiquitin, through cryo-EM structures showing dynamic interactions and translocation processes.
