Abstract excerpt
The polycomb group protein BMI1 has been linked to proliferation, senescence, cancer progression and stem cell phenotype. At present, very little is known about its regulation. Here, we report that BMI1 contains a functional recognition motif for the F box protein βTrCP, which regulates ubiquitination and proteasome-mediated degradation of various proteins. We show that overexpression of wild-type βTrCP but not...
