Structure of the Rpn13-Rpn2 complex provides insights for Rpn13 and Uch37 as anticancer targets

In the proteasome, Rpn2 provides the docking site for substrate receptor Rpn13. Here the authors present the structure of human Rpn13 Pru domain bound to its binding site in Rpn2 and provide insights into the mode of action for Rpn13-targeting molecule RA190, which has anticancer properties.
