F-box/LRR-repeat protein 5 (FBXL5)

Component of some SCF (SKP1-cullin-F-box) protein ligase complex that plays a central role in iron homeostasis by boosting the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of IREB2/IRP2. Upon high iron and oxygen level, it specifically recognizes and binds IREB2/IRP2, promoting its ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome.

Promotes ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of DCTN1/p150-glued. .
