ATPase of the 19S regulatory particle of the 26S proteasome; one of six ATPases of the regulatory particle; involved in the degradation of ubiquitinated substrates; required for normal peptide hydrolysis by the core 20S particle; N-myristoylation of Rpt2p at Gly2 is involved in regulating the proper intracellular distribution of proteasome activity by controlling the nuclear localization of the 26S proteasome
