F-box domain found in F-box/WD repeat-containing protein 8 (FBXW8) and similar proteins FBXW8, also called F-box and WD-40 domain-containing protein 8, or F-box only protein 29 (FBXO29), is the substrate-recognition component of a Cul7-RING ubiquitin-protein ligase complex, which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins, such as GORASP1, IRS1, MAP4K1/HPK1. The F-box domain has a role in mediating protein-protein interactions in a variety of contexts, such as polyubiquitination, transcription elongation, centromere binding and translational repression.
