The founding member of the F-box protein family, Cyclin F, serves as substrate adaptor for the Ubiquitin E3 ligase Skp1-Cul1-F-box (SCF)Cyclin F which is responsible for ubiquitination of proteins involved in cell cycle progression, DNA damage and mitotic fidelity. Missense mutations in CCNF encoding for Cyclin F are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, it remains elusive whether CCNF mutations affect the substrate adaptor function of Cyclin F and whether altered SCFCyclin ...
