| Description | This entry represents the SOCS box domain of SOCS4.SOCS family proteins form part of a classical negative feedback system that regulates cytokine signal transduction. SOCS4 (Suppressor of cytokine signalling 4) is the substrate-recognition component of a SCF-like ECS (Elongin BC-CUL2/5-SOCS-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins [ ]. SOCS4 and SOCS5 regulate epidermal growth factor receptor signaling [].The general function of the SOCS box is the recruitment of the ubiquitin-transferase system. The SOCS box interacts with Elongins B and C, Cullin-5 or Cullin-2, Rbx-1, and E2. Therefore, SOCS-box-containing proteins probably function as E3 ubiquitin ligases and mediate the degradation of proteins associated through their N-terminal regions [, ]. |
