    We demonstrate that the CIA-targeting complex promotes the ability of FBXL5 to degrade iron regulatory proteins. In addition, the FBXL5-CIA-targeting complex interaction is regulated by oxygen (O2) tension displaying a robust association in 21% O2 that is severely diminished in 1% O2 and contributes to O2-dependent regulation of IRP degradation

    An Oxygen-Dependent Interaction between FBXL5 and the CIA-Targeting Complex Regulates Iron Homeostasis.

    The ATR checkpoint pathway causes a histone chaperone normally associated with the replication fork, ASF1a, to degrade through a CRL1(betaTRCP)-dependent ubiquitination/proteasome pathway, leading to the localized dechromatinization and gene repression.

    ATR checkpoint kinase and CRL1βTRCP collaborate to degrade ASF1a and thus repress genes overlapping with clusters of stalled replication forks.
