beta-Transducin Repeat-Containing Proteins definition

beta-Transducin Repeat-Containing Proteins
beta-TrCP; beta-Transducin Repeat-Containing Protein; betaTrCP; Protein, beta-Transducin Repeat-Containing; Repeat-Containing Protein, beta-Transducin; Repeat-Containing Proteins, beta-Transducin; beta TrCP; beta Transducin Repeat Containing Protein
A family of F-box domain proteins that contain sequences that are homologous to the beta subunit of transducin (BETA-TRANSDUCIN). They play an important role in the protein degradation pathway by becoming components of SKP CULLIN F-BOX PROTEIN LIGASES, which selectively act on a subset of proteins including beta-catenin and IkappaBbeta.
