Chemical inhibitors of PRAME like 3E can lead to the functional inhibition of this protein through several mechanisms, primarily by disrupting its degradation pathway. Proteasome inhibitors such as MG-132, Lactacystin, Bortezomib, Carfilzomib, Oprozomib, Marizomib, Velcade, Ixazomib, and Delanzomib, all function by impeding the proteasomal degradation process. The proteasome is a complex that degrades ubiquitinated proteins, and its inhibition results in the accumulation of such proteins within the cell. When the proteasome's activity is halted, ubiquitinated PRAME like 3E accumulates, which can lead to an overload of the protein within the cell. This accumulation can disrupt normal cellular processes, as the excess protein may aggregate or fail to fold properly, leading to functional inhibition. The accumulation of PRAME like 3E due to proteasome inhibition can also interfere with its normal turnover, which is crucial for maintaining cellular homeostasis.
Additionally, certain chemicals can influence the post-translational modification of proteins, thereby affecting their function. For instance, Exemestane and Aminoglutethimide, which are known to influence steroid synthesis and consequently the cellular environment, can alter the modification state of PRAME like 3E. Changes in the post-translational modification can affect the protein's stability, its interactions with other cellular components, or its overall activity within the cell. By altering these modifications, Exemestane and Aminoglutethimide can lead to the functional inhibition of PRAME like 3E, as the protein may not be able to participate in its normal cellular functions effectively. Benzyl isothiocyanate also engages in this process by inhibiting the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, potentially leading to the same outcome of aggregation or misfolding due to impaired degradation.
