摘要
In early C. elegrans embryos, the transition from meiosis to mitosis requires degradation of the MEI-1 protein. A novel class of SCF-like ubiquitin ligases has been identified that mediates this process. These ligases contain the CUL-3 scaffold at their core and use a BTB-domain protein in substrate recognition.
