Description
Description
F box proteins are the variable substrate adapters for Skp, Cullin, F-box (SCF) complexes. SCF complexes are E3 ubiquitin ligases that ubiquitinate proteins, targeting them for degradation by the proteasome. F Box proteins can be grouped into three families based on the presence of other domains. (Adapted from FBrf0225076).
