How is the balance between protein synthesis and degradation achieved?

Abstract: Unlike most substances that cells manufacture, proteins are not produced and broken down by a common series of chemical reactions, but by completely different (independent and disconnected) mechanisms that possess no intrinsic means of making the rates of the two processes equal and attaining steady state concentrations. Balance between them is achieved extrinsically and is often imagined today to be the result of the actions of chemical feedback agents. But however instantiated, chemical feedback or any simil… Show more

“…On the other hand, proteins with degradative function are also required in honey bee embryogenesis in parallel with protein synthesis as in human cells (48), which is achieved by the Table S1. expression of proteasome related proteins, such as protein DJ-1, cathepsin L, lysosomal Pro-X carboxypeptidase, and xaa-Pro aminopeptidase. Overall, the expression of proteins related to synthesis/degradation activities suggests their pivotal roles in the normal functionality of honey bee embryonic organogenesis by their correct configuration of new proteins and cyclic utilization of discarded proteins (49).…”

“…7 The enriched ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process and programmed cell death of the upregulated protein interaction network ( Figure S2B), together with the activated phagocytosis pathway (Figure 2, Supplemental Table S8), are supposed to be involved in the process of the dorsal blastoderm apoptosis at the late blastoderm stage 1 or the degradation and reutilization of the incorrect configured polypeptides. 45,46 All of these observations make clear the notion that they are of functional importance concerning the rudimentary shaping of newly emerged organs for the formation of the basic configuration of drone embryo.…”

“…The matter is further complicated by the indirect effects of proteasome inhibition used for such studies on the arrest of protein synthesis by the cells (33)(34)(35), on the transport rates of the MHC molecules to the cell surface, and on their retrograde transport back to the vesicular system (36) (reviewed in (37)). Proteasome inhibition likely causes shortage of free ubiquitin, reduced supply of free amino acids, and induces an ER unfolded protein response (UPR), which signals the cells to block most (but not all) cellular protein synthesis (reviewed in (38)).…”
