A number of RING finger proteins have recently been shown to act as E3 ubiquitin ligases [ 24 ] . WD40 domains have also been frequently found in E3 complexes as substrate recruiting domains [ 25 26 27 28 ] .

These enzyme complexes each recognize a subset of substrates and tag them by linking the carboxyl terminus of ubiquitin with an amino group on the target protein via an amide bond (Figure 1).
Upon an auxin stimulus, an SCF (SKP1/Cullin/F-box protein) ubiquitin ligase (Deshaies 1999) containing the TIR1 F-box protein ubiquitinates the Aux/IAA proteins, marking them for degradation by the 26S proteasome thereby de-repressing the response pathway (Gray et al.
