Abstract:
Skp2 (S-phase kinase associated protein) is substrate recognition subunit of SCFSkp2 (Cul1-Rbx1-Skp1-F boxSkp2)complex,a kind of ubiquitin ligases (E3s). Skp2 involves in regulating many functions of cell,such as cell cycle progressing,cell proliferation and differentiation,as well as apoptosis.At present many studies indicated that Skp2 is closely related to tumorigenesis and prognosis.With deeper study of Skp2 in tumor, Skp2 has the potential to be a promising drug target and biomarker of prognosis in human cancer.
