Elisa
Function
Retains NFE2L2/NRF2 in the cytosol. Functions as substrate adapter protein for the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex formed by CUL3 and RBX1. Targets NFE2L2/NRF2 for ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome, thus resulting in the suppression of its transcriptional activity and the repression of antioxidant response element-mediated detoxifying enzyme gene expression. May also retain BPTF in the cytosol. Targets PGAM5 for ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Mouse Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1
Subcellular Location
Cytoplasm Nucleus Shuttles between cytoplasm and nucleus.
Homodimer. Forms a ternary complex with NFE2L2 and PGAM5. Interacts with the N-terminal regulatory domain of NFE2L2/NRF2. Interacts with BPTF and PTMA. Interacts with CUL3. Part of a complex that contains KEAP1, CUL3 and RBX1.
