General annotation (Comments)

Function

SIII, also known as elongin, is a general transcription elongation factor that increases the RNA polymerase II transcription elongation past template-encoded arresting sites. Subunit A is transcriptionally active and its transcription activity is strongly enhanced by binding to the dimeric complex of the SIII regulatory subunits B and C (elongin BC complex). Ref.9

The elongin BC complex seems to be involved as an adapter protein in the proteasomal degradation of target proteins via different E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, including the von Hippel-Lindau ubiquitination complex CBC(VHL). By binding to BC-box motifs it seems to link target recruitment subunits, like VHL and members of the SOCS box family, to Cullin/RBX1 modules that activate E2 ubiquitination enzymes. Ref.9

Subunit structure

Heterotrimer of an A (A1, A2 or A3), B and C subunit. Part of E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes with CUL5 or CUL2, RBX1 and a substrate adapter protein that can be either SOCS1, SOCS5, TCEB3, VHL or WSB1 By similarity. The elongin BC complex is part of a complex with hydroxylated HIF1A. Substrate adapter protein can be a viral protein such as HIV Vif. Interacts with VHL. Interacts with TMF1. Interacts with human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) protein NS1. Interacts with SPSB1. Ref.5 Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.10 Ref.11 Ref.16

Subcellular location

Nucleus Probable.

Tissue specificity

Overexpressed in prostate cancer cell line PC-3 and breast cancer cell line SK-BR-3. Ref.6

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the SKP1 family.
