Abstract

The F-box protein beta-transducin repeat containing protein (β-TrCP) acts as a substrate adapter for the SCF E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, plays a crucial role in cell physiology, and is often deregulated in many types of cancers. Here, we develop a fluorescent biosensor to quantitatively measure β-TrCP activity in live, single cells in real-time. We find β-TrCP remains constitutively active throughout the cell cycle and functions to maintain discreet steady-state levels of its substrates. We find no correlation between expression levels of β-TrCP and β-TrCP activity, indicating post-transcriptional regulation. A high throughput screen of small-molecules using our reporter identifies receptor-tyrosine kinase signaling as a key axis for regulating β-TrCP activity by inhibiting binding between β-TrCP and the core SCF complex. Our study introduces a method to monitor β-TrCP activity in live cells and identifies a key signaling network that regulates β-TrCP activity throughout the cell cycle.
