Résumé

FEM1B acts as a substrate recognition subunit for ubiquitin ligase complexes belonging to the CRL2 E3 family. Several biological functions have been proposed for FEM1B, including a structurally resolved function as a sensor for redox cell status by controlling mitochondrial activity, but its implication in human disease remains elusive.
