Protein name Kelch-like protein 40 (Kelch repeat and BTB domain-containing protein 5) (Sarcosynapsin)
Protein function Substrate-specific adapter of a BCR (BTB-CUL3-RBX1) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that acts as a key regulator of skeletal muscle development (PubMed:23746549). The BCR(KLHL40) complex acts by mediating ubiquitination and degradation of TFDP1, the
