Entrez Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is expressed in neurons of most regions of the brain. It contains an N-terminal BTB domain, which mediates dimerization of the protein, and a C-terminal Kelch domain, which mediates binding to F-actin. This protein may play a key role in the regulation of actin-based neuronal function. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010].
UniProt Summary: Substrate-recognition component of some cullin-RING- based BCR (BTB-CUL3-RBX1) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex. The BCR(KLHL17) mediates the ubiquitination and subsequenct degradation of GLUR6. May play a role in the actin-based neuronal function (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
