NCIt synonyms : ZYP Protein; RING Finger Protein 75; Regulator of Cullins 1; RING Finger Protein; RBX1; ROC1; Protein ZYP; RING Box Protein-1; EC 2.3.2.27; E3 Ubiquitin-Protein Transferase RBX1; EC 2.3.2.32; RING Box Protein 1;
NCIt definition : E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RBX1 (108 aa, 12 kDa) is encoded by the human RBX1 gene.
This protein plays a role in the modulation of protein modification.;
NCIt note : RING Box Protein 1, containing a RING-type zinc finger, mediates protein turnover
of cell cycle, signal transduction, and transcription proteins by ubiquitination and
proteasomal degradation. A component of various SCF, SCF-like, and CBC multisubunit
E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, RBX1 may recruit E2 enzymes to the complex through
its RING-type zinc finger and heterodimerizes with cullins in the third step of ubiquitin
conjugation reactions to catalyze ubiquitin polymerization.;
