Function
SOCS family proteins form part of a classical negative feedback system that regulates cytokine signal transduction. May be a substrate recognition component of a SCF-like ECS (Elongin BC-CUL2/5-SOCS-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins (By similarity). Regulates KIT degradation by ubiquitination of the tyrosine-phosphorylated receptor.
Suppressor of cytokine signaling 6 (socs6) is a member of the socs family of e3 ubiquitin ligases that can interact with c-kit and suppress c-kit-dependent pathways. / we demonstrate that socs6 has ubiquitin ligase activity toward c-kit and regulates c-kit protein turnover in cells
