Which of the following types of protein degradation is characterized by the involvement of ATP-dependent proteases and is typically associated with the degradation of aberrant or damaged proteins?

A Proteasomal degradation ✓
B Lysosomal degradation
C Calpain-mediated degradation
D Caspase-mediated degradation

Explanation

Proteasomal degradation is an ATP-dependent process that involves the degradation of proteins by proteasomes, which are large protein complexes that recognize and degrade ubiquitinated proteins.
