Mechanisms and function of substrate recruitment by F-box proteins
TL;DR: The evolution of substrate recruitment by F-box proteins, the dysregulation of substrates in disease and potential avenues for F- box protein-directed disease therapies are focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI
SCF ubiquitin ligase targeted therapies
TL;DR: This Review explores and discusses potential strategies to target SCF-mediated biological processes to treat human diseases and describes SCF ubiquitin ligases as promising drug targets.

TL;DR: The findings reveal that mTOR cooperates with CK1α and βTrCP to generate an auto-amplification loop to promote its own full activation, and suggest that pharmacologic inhibition of CK1 may be a viable therapeutic option for the treatment of cancers characterized by activation of mTOR-signaling pathways.
