Proteasomal activator 28 gamma (PA28γ), an essential constituent of the 20S proteasome, is frequently overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) core protein is recently known to activate PA28γ expression in human hepatocytes via upregulation of p53 levels; however, its role in HCV tumorigenesis remains unknown. Here, we found that HCV core-activated PA28γ downregulates p16 levels via ubiquitin-independent proteasomal degradation. As a result, HCV core protein activated the Rb-E2F pathway to stimulate cell
