Illustrated pathways of FBW7-mediated degradation of its major downstream targets. FBW7 recognizes the substrates, which are presented closely to the E2 enzyme to ensure consequent conjugation of ubiquitin. The addition of polyubiquitin targets proteins to the 26S-proteasome for degradation. Several proteins and miRNAs have been reported to regulate the expression of FBW7.
