The encoded protein interacts with TP53, CUL9, and FBXW8 proteins. Defects in this gene are a cause of 3M syndrome type 1 (3M1). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2009]. * **UniProt Summary**: Core component of the 3M and Cul7-RING(FBXW8) complexes, which mediates the ubiquitination of target proteins. Core component of the 3M complex, a complex required to regulate microtubule dynamics and genome integrity. It is unclear how the 3M complex regulates microtubules, it could act by controlling the level of a microtubule stabilizer (PubMed:24793695). Interaction with CUL9 is required to inhibit CUL9 activity and ubiquitination of BIRC5 (PubMed:24793696). Core component of a Cul7-RING ubiquitin-protein ligase with FBXW8, which mediates ubiquitination and consequent degradation of target proteins such as GORASP1, IRS1 and MAP4K1/HPK1 (PubMed:21572988, PubMed:24362026). Ubiquitination of GORASP1 regulates Golgi morphogenesis and dendrite patterning in brain (PubMed:21572988). Mediates ubiquitination and degradation of IRS1 in a mTOR-dependent manner: the Cul7-RING(FBXW8) complex recognizes and binds IRS1 previously phosphorylated by S6 kinase (RPS6KB1 or RPS6KB2) (PubMed:18498745). The Cul7-RING(FBXW8) complex also mediates ubiquitination of MAP4K1/HPK1: recognizes and binds autophosphorylated MAP4K1/HPK1, leading to its degradatation, thereby affecting cell proliferation and differentiation (PubMed:24362026). Acts as a regulator in trophoblast cell epithelial-mesenchymal transition and placental development (PubMed:20139075). Does not promote polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of p53/TP53 (PubMed:16547496, PubMed:17332328). While the Cul7-RING(FBXW8) and the 3M complexes are associated and involved in common processes, CUL7 and the Cul7-RING(FBXW8) complex may be have additional functions. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16547496, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17332328, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18498745, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20139075, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21572988, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24362026, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24793695, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24793696}. |Cul7| |APC10| |Cullin| |Cul7-RING ubiquitin ligase complex| |3M complex| |anaphase-promoting complex| |positive regulation of dendrite morphogenesis| |IRE1-mediated unfolded protein response| |vasculogenesis| |mitotic cytokinesis| |epithelial to mesenchymal transition| |positive regulation of dendrite development| |regulation of dendrite morphogenesis| |cytoskeleton-dependent cytokinesis| |cytokinesis| |endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response| |cellular response to unfolded protein| |Golgi organization| |cellular response to topologically incorrect protein| |regulation of dendrite development| |placenta development| |positive regulation of cell morphogenesis involved in differentiation| |mesenchymal cell differentiation| |response to unfolded protein| |regulation of mitotic nuclear division| |response to topologically incorrect protein| |regulation of nuclear division| |mesenchyme development| |response to endoplasmic reticulum stress| |positive regulation of neuron projection development| |ubiquitin protein ligase binding| |regulation of cell morphogenesis involved in differentiation| |post-translational protein modification| |positive regulation of neuron differentiation| |positive regulation of cell projection organization| |blood vessel morphogenesis| |endomembrane system organization| |reproductive structure development| |reproductive system development| |positive regulation of neurogenesis| |microtubule cytoskeleton organization| |blood vessel development| |regulation of cell morphogenesis| |centrosome| |cell division| |regulation of neuron projection development| |vasculature development| |cardiovascular system development| |ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process| |modification-dependent protein catabolic process| |positive regulation of nervous system development| |positive regulation of cell development| |modification-dependent macromolecule catabolic process| |proteolysis involved in cellular protein catabolic process| |mitotic cell cycle process| |cellular protein catabolic process| |regulation of mitotic cell cycle| |tube morphogenesis| |regulation of neuron differentiation| |developmental process involved in reproduction| |microtubule-based process| |mitotic cell cycle| |protein catabolic process| |protein ubiquitination| |regulation of plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization| |perinuclear region of cytoplasm| |viral process| |regulation of cell projection organization| |regulation of cell cycle process| |protein modification by small protein conjugation| |symbiotic process| |regulation of neurogenesis| |interspecies interaction between organisms| |tube development| |circulatory system development| |cellular macromolecule catabolic process| |regulation of nervous system development| |regulation of cell development| |positive regulation of cell differentiation| |Golgi apparatus| |protein modification by small protein conjugation or removal| |cell cycle process| |macromolecule catabolic process| |organonitrogen compound catabolic process| |regulation of anatomical structure morphogenesis| |cytoskeleton organization| |regulation of cell cycle| |positive regulation of cellular component organization| |proteolysis| |regulation of organelle organization| |cell cycle| |positive regulation of developmental process| |reproductive process| |reproduction| |generation of neurons| |neurogenesis| |cellular response to stress| |positive regulation of multicellular organismal process| |tissue development| |organic substance catabolic process| |cellular catabolic process| |regulation of cell differentiation| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
