Abstract excerpt
Asb2, ankyrin repeat, and SOCS box protein 2 form an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Asb2 ubiquitin ligase activity drives the degradation of filamins, which have essential functions in humans. The placenta is a temporary organ that forms during pregnancy, and normal placentation is important for survival and growth of the fetus. Recent studies have shown that approximately 25-30% of knockout (KO) mice have...
