Proteasome Subunits Differentially Control Myeloma Cell Viability and Proteasome Inhibitor Sensitivity.

ABSTRACT: We generated eight multiple myeloma cell lines resistant to bortezomib; five acquired PSMB5 mutations. In 1,500 patients such mutations were rare clinically. To better understand disruption of proteasomes on multiple myeloma viability and drug sensitivity, we systematically deleted the major proteasome catalytic subunits. Multiple myeloma cells without PSMB5 were viable. Drug-resistant, PSMB5-mutated cell lines were resensitized to bortezomib by PSMB5 deletion, implying PSMB5 mutation is activating in its drug resistance function. In contrast, PSMB6 knockout was lethal to multiple myeloma cell lines. Depleting PSMB6 prevented splicing of the major catalytic subunits PSMB5, PSMB7, PSMB8, and PSMB10; however, PSMB6 engineered without splicing function or catalytic activity, also resto
