UniProt functional annotation for Q96DX5

UniProt code: Q96DX5.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: Substrate-recognition component of a SCF-like ECS (Elongin- Cullin-SOCS-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Recognizes at least two forms of creatine kinase, CKB and CKMT1A. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22418839}.
 
Pathway: Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.
Subcellular location: Mitochondrion {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20302626}.
Tissue specificity: Predominantly expressed in testis, kidney, and liver. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20302626}.
Domain: The SOCS box domain mediates the interaction with the Elongin BC complex, an adapter module in different E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complexes. {ECO:0000250}.
Miscellaneous: [Isoform 2]: Does not interact with the Elongin BC complex, likely to be a negative regulator of isoform 1. {ECO:0000305}.
Similarity: Belongs to the ankyrin SOCS box (ASB) family. {ECO:0000305}.
Sequence caution: Sequence=CAB45706.2; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
