Description

FBXL22 encodes a member of the F-box protein family, characterized by an F-box domain and leucine-rich repeats (LRRs). F-box proteins are substrate recognition components of the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box) ubiquitin ligase complex, which targets proteins for ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation. FBXL22 is involved in cell cycle regulation and may play a role in cancer biology.

Protein Summary

FBXL22 is a 422-amino acid protein containing an N-terminal F-box domain (required for interaction with SKP1) and C-terminal leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) that mediate substrate binding. It is a component of the SCF ubiquitin ligase complex, targeting specific proteins for ubiquitination and degradation. Expression is low in most tissues, with highest levels in testis and lymphoid tissues. No disease-causing mutations have been reported.
