Fbxo8 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity. Acts upstream of or within ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Part of ubiquitin ligase complex. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; ear; forelimb bud; heart; and notochord. Orthologous to human FBXO8 (F-box protein 8).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Fbxo8 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
