REGγ is a component of ubiquitin-independent 20S proteasome that targets many regulatory proteins for degradation. Here the authors show that REGγ is induced in DSS colitis and promotes degradation of IκBɛ, and that REGγ-deficient mice have less NFκB activation and are more resistant to the disease.
