Abstract excerpt
Rac1, a member of the Rho family of GTPases, regulates diverse cellular functions, including cytoskeleton reorganization and cell migration. F-box proteins are major subunits within the Skp1-Cul1-F-box (SCF) E3 ubiquitin ligases that recognize specific substrates for ubiquitination. The role of F-box proteins in regulating Rac1 stability has not been studied. Mouse lung epithelial (MLE12) cells were used to...
