The 26S proteasome is known to play pivotal roles in cell-cycle progression in various eukaryotic cells; however, little is known about its role in higher plants. Here we report that the subcellular distribution of the 26S proteasome is dynamically changed in a cell-cycle dependent manner in tobacco BY-2 cells as determined by immunostaining with anti-Rpn10 (a regulatory PA700 subunit) and anti-20S catalytic proteasome antibodies. The 26S proteasome was found to localize not only in nuclear envelopes and mitotic spindles but also in preprophase bands (PPBs) and phragmoplasts appearing in G2 and M phases, respectively. MG132, a proteasome inhibitor, exclusively caused cell-cycle arrest not only at the metaphase but also the early stage of PPB formation at the G2 phase and the collapse of the phragmoplast, which seems to be closely related to proteasome distribution in the cells.
