Description
Product Characteristics:
Substrate-recognition component of some SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein)-type E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Specifically recognizes p53/TP53, promoting its ubiquitination and degradation.
Subcellular location: Nucleus
Synonyms: JFK, Fbx42, F-box only protein 42, Just one F-box and Kelch domain-containing protein, FBXO42, KIAA1332
Target Information: Members of the F-box protein family, such as FBXO42, are characterized by an approximately 40-amino acid F-box motif. SCF complexes, formed by SKP1 (SKP1A\, MIM 601434), cullin (see CUL1\, MIM 603134), and F-box proteins, act as protein-ubiquitin ligases. F-box proteins interact with SKP1 through the F box, and they interact with ubiquitination targets through other protein interaction domains (Jin et al., 2004 [PubMed 15520277]).[supplied by OMIM, Dec 2010]
