PSME2, also known as proteasome (prosome, macropain) activator subunit 2, is an IFN-gamma inducible proteasome activator required for presentation of certain major histocompatibility (MHC) class I antigens. Downregulation of PSME2 results in abnormal proteasome activation and has been implicated in the development of intimal hyperplasia (IH) in animal models. Recombinant human PSME2 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography. Synonyms: Proteasome (prosome, macropain) activator subunit 2, PA28B, PA28beta, REGbeta. NCBI no.: AAH72025
