The WD repeat and SOCS box-containing 1 (WSB1, also known as SWIP1), is a member of the WD-protein subfamily (1). It contains six WD-repeats spanning most of the protein and an SOCS box in the C-terminus and expressed as multiple alternatively spliced isoforms (1,2). WSB1 is thought to function as part of an SCF-like ECS (Elongin-Cullin-SOCS-box protein) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that mediates the ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of target proteins, such as DIO2 (3). Overexpression of WSB1 is implicated in pancreatic cancer progression, suggesting a role for WSB1 in carcinogenesis (4,5).1) Vasiliauskas D, Hancock S, Stern CD.
