| Function | Core component of the 3M and Cul7-RING(FBXW8) complexes, which mediates the ubiquitination of target proteins. Core component of the 3M complex, a complex required to regulate microtubule dynamics and genome integrity. It is unclear how the 3M complex regulates microtubules, it could act by controlling the level of a microtubule stabilizer (PubMed:24793695). Interaction with CUL9 is required to inhibit CUL9 activity and ubiquitination of BIRC5 (PubMed:24793696). Core component of a Cul7-RING ubiquitin-protein ligase with FBXW8, which mediates ubiquitination and consequent degradation of target proteins such as GORASP1, IRS1 and MAP4K1/HPK1 (PubMed:21572988, PubMed:24362026). Ubiquitination of GORASP1 regulates Golgi morphogenesis and dendrite patterning in brain (PubMed:21572988). Mediates ubiquitination and degradation of IRS1 in a mTOR-dependent manner: the Cul7-RING(FBXW8) complex recognizes and binds IRS1 previously phosphorylated by S6 kinase (RPS6KB1 or RPS6KB2) (PubMed:18498745) |
| Subcellular Location | Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Golgi apparatus. Note=Colocalizes with FBXW8 at the Golgi apparatus in neurons; localization to Golgi is mediated by OBSL1. During mitosis, localizes to the mitotic apparatus (PubMed:24793695). CCDC8 is required for centrosomal location (PubMed:24793695). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24793695}. |
| Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in fetal kidney and adult skeletal muscle. Also abundant in fetal brain, as well as in adult pancreas, kidney, placenta and heart. Detected in trophoblasts, lymphoblasts, osteoblasts, chondrocytes and skin fibroblasts. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16142236}. |
