| Description | Anti-Cdc4 Antibody |
| Background Information | The F-box protein family is characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. F-box proteins are divided into 3 classes: FBWs containing WD-40 domains, FBLs containing leucine-rich repeats, and FBXs containing either different protein-protein interaction modules or no recognizable motifs. They constitute one of the four subunits of ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. Cdc4 is one member of this family, which is also known as AGO, FBW7, FBX30 or SEL10. CDC4 binds directly to cyclin E and targets cyclin E for ubiquitin-mediated degradation. Cdc4 proteins of amino acid lengths varying from 553 aa to 707 aa in length have been reported. Cdc4 is an inhibitor of Notch signaling that targets Notch for ubiquitin-mediated degradation after a nuclear phosphorylation event.5,6 Cdc4 interacts with presenilin 1, facilitates its ubiquitination, and alters A-beta peptide production. Thus, it may be important for Alzheimers disease. Mutations of the CDC4 gene are detected in ovarian and breast cancer cell lines and the CDC4 gene may also be involved in the pathogenesis of human pancreatic and endometrial cancers. |

|
| Entrez Gene Summary | This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family which is characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. The F-box proteins constitute one of the four subunits of ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box proteins are divided into 3 classes: Fbws containing WD-40 domains, Fbls containing leucine-rich repeats, and Fbxs containing either different protein-protein interaction modules or no recognizable motifs. The protein encoded by this gene was previously referred to as FBX30, and belongs to the Fbws class; in addition to an F-box, this protein contains 7 tandem WD40 repeats. This protein binds directly to cyclin E and probably targets cyclin E for ubiquitin-mediated degradation. Mutations in this gene are detected in ovarian and breast cancer cell lines, implicating the genes potential role in the pathogenesis of human cancers. Three transcript variants encoding three different isoforms have been found for this gene. |
