BTRC (gene)
BTRC (beta-TrCP1, FBXW1A) is a human chromosome 10q24 gene encoding the F-box/WD40 substrate receptor of the SCF E3 ubiquitin ligase, degrading phosphorylated IκBα, β-catenin, CDC25A and other regulators of NF-κB, Wnt, and cell-cycle signaling.
F-box domain
F-box domain: roughly 40-amino-acid motif first found in cyclin F that binds SKP1, recruiting one of 69 human F-box proteins into SCF ubiquitin ligase complexes to select substrates for degradation.
F-box protein family
F-box protein family: eukaryotic proteins defined by an F-box motif binding Skp1 in SCF ubiquitin ligases; substrate adaptors in FBXL, FBXW, FBXO classes, ~70 in humans, huge in plants.
SKP2
SKP2 (S-phase kinase-associated protein 2) is an F-box protein substrate receptor of the SCF^SKP2 E3 ubiquitin ligase that degrades p27 and p21; an oncogene overexpressed in many cancers and a developing drug target (C1, SZL-P1-41, pevonedistat, SKPer1).
