26S proteasome non-ATPase regulatory subunit 7, also known as 26S proteasome non-ATPase subunit Rpn8, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PSMD7 gene. The 26S proteasome is a multicatalytic proteinase complex with a highly ordered structure composed of two complexes, a 20S core and a 19S regulator. The 20S core consists of 4 rings of 28 non-identical subunits; two rings of seven alpha subunits and 2 rings of 7 beta subunits. The 19S regulator is divided into a base, which contains 6 ATPase subunits and 2 non-ATPase subunits, and a lid, which contains up to 10 non-ATPase subunits. Proteasomes are distributed throughout eukaryotic cells at a high concentration and cleave peptides in an ATP/ubiquitin-dependent process in a non-lysosomal pathway. An essential function of a modified proteasome, the immunoproteasome, is the processing of class I MHC peptides.
