Rabbit anti-Human FBXO7 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q9Y3I1

Target Species

Human

Target Name

FBXO7

Target Full Name

F-box only protein 7

Target Function

Substrate recognition component of a SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Recognizes BIRC2 and DLGAP5. Plays a role downstream of PINK1 in the clearance of damaged mitochondria via selective autophagy (mitophagy) by targeting PRKN to dysfunctional depolarized mitochondria. Promotes MFN1 ubiquitination.

Target Involvement

Parkinson disease 15 (PARK15)

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Mitochondrion. Cytoplasm, cytosol.

Target Synonyms

FBX; FBX7; PKPS; FBX07; PARK15; FBXO7

Target Background

This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family which is characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. The F-box proteins constitute one of the four subunits of the ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box proteins are divided into 3 classes: Fbws containing WD-40 domains, Fbls containing leucine-rich repeats, and Fbxs containing either different protein-protein interaction modules or no recognizable motifs. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the Fbxs class and it may play a role in regulation of hematopoiesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been identified with the full-length natures of only some variants being determined.
