ANAPC11

Component of the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C), a cell cycle-regulated E3 ubiquitin ligase that controls progression through the cell cycle. Together with ANAPC2, forms the catalytic component of the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. APC/C acts by mediating ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of target proteins: it mainly mediates the formation of 'Lys-11'-linked polyubiquitin chains and, to a lower extent, the formation of 'Lys-48'- and 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains. APC/C catalyzes assembly of branched 'Lys-11'-/'Lys-48'-linked branched ubiquitin chains on target proteins. APC/C is activated by CDC20 in the metaphase/anaphase transition of cell cycle, targeting the degradation of cyclin B and securin. APC/C is regulated by the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC), which inhibits APC/C and delays chromosome segregation..
