gene geneOn this page
Summary
ASB6 (ankyrin repeat and SOCS box containing 6, HGNC:17181) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 9q34.11, encoding Ankyrin repeat and SOCS box protein 6 (Q9NWX5). Probable substrate-recognition component of a SCF-like ECS (Elongin-Cullin-SOCS-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins.
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a family of ankyrin repeat proteins that, along with four other protein families, contain a C-terminal SOCS box motif. Growing evidence suggests that the SOCS box, similar to the F-box, acts as a bridge between specific substrate-binding domains and the more generic proteins that comprise a large family of E3 ubiquitin protein ligases. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene.
