We report the functional characterization of RPN6, an essential gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae encoding the proteasomal subunit Rpn6p. For this purpose, conditional mutants that are able to grow on galactose but not on glucose were obtained. When these mutants are shifted to glucose, Rpn6p depletion induces several specific phenotypes. First, multiubiquitinated proteins accumulate, indicating a defect in proteasome-mediated proteolysis. Second, mutant yeasts are arrested as large budded cells with a single nucleus and a 2C DNA content; in addition, the spindle pole body is duplicated, indicating a general cell cycle defect related to the turnover of G(2)-cyclins after DNA synthesis. Clb2p and Pds1p, but not Sic1p, accumulate in the arrested cells. Depletion of Rpn6p affects both the structure and the peptidase activity of proteasomes in the cell. These results implicate Rpn6p function in the specific recognition of a subset of substrates and point to a role in maintaining the correct quaternary structure of the 26 S proteasome.
