| Normal role description: | RBX1 is a subunit in E3 ubiquitin ligase. It is involved in degradation of many molecules involved in signalling, cell cycle progression, transcription factor and protein turnover. Some substrates are p53, MYC, DsH, and others. It is expressed in cancers but mechanisms are unclear. |
