Figure 8From: Multiple phosphorylation events control mitotic degradation of the muscle transcription factor Myf5A model for Myf5 mitotic degradation pathway. Myf5 is subjected to multiple phosphorylations in Xenopus mitotic egg extracts, that tightly control its stability: phosphorylation of the protein leads to its ubiquitylation by an E3 distinct from APC/C, and its subsequent degradation by the proteasome. However, a hyperphosphorylated form of Myf5 remains stable (see text for details).Back to article page
