CHFR Protein Regulates Mitotic Checkpoint by Targeting PARP-1 Protein for Ubiquitination and Degradation
16 Feb 2012
Abstract excerpt
The mitotic checkpoint gene CHFR (checkpoint with forkhead-associated (FHA) and RING finger domains) is silenced by promoter hypermethylation or mutated in various human cancers, suggesting that CHFR is an important tumor suppressor. Recent studies have reported that CHFR functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase, resulting in the degradation of target proteins. To better understand how CHFR suppresses cell cycle...
