CAND1

CAND1 (Cullin Associated And Neddylation Dissociated 1) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with CAND1 include Familial Hypertension. Among its related pathways are Innate Immune System and Mesodermal Commitment Pathway. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include binding and TBP-class protein binding. An important paralog of this gene is CAND2.

Cullin Associated And Neddylation Dissociated 1

Key assembly factor of SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes that promotes the exchange of the substrate-recognition F-box subunit in SCF complexes, thereby playing a key role in the cellular repertoire of SCF complexes. Acts as a F-box protein exchange factor. The exchange activity of CAND1 is coupled with cycles of neddylation conjugation: in the deneddylated state, cullin-binding CAND1 binds CUL1-RBX1, increasing dissociation of the SCF complex and promoting exchange of the F-box protein. Probably plays a similar role in other cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes.
