Abstract excerpt
We show that Claspin, an adaptor protein required for Chk1 activation, becomes degraded at the onset of mitosis. Claspin degradation was triggered by its interaction with, and ubiquitylation by, the SCFbetaTrCP ubiquitin ligase. This interaction was phosphorylation dependent and required the activity of the Plk1 kinase and the integrity of a betaTrCP recognition motif (phosphodegron) in the N terminus of Claspin....
