Background: Keap1

Kelch-like ECH-associated protein (KEAP1) is the substrate recognition subunit of a BCR (BTB-CUL3-RBX) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex.  With a predicted molecular weight of 70 kDa, human KEAP1 IS 74% identical to its mouse and rat orthologues.  KEAP1 contains an N-terminal BB Domain that mediates interaction with CUL3, a central BACK Domain that plays a role in protein-protein interactions, and six C-terminal Kelch Domains that function in substrate recognition.  KEAP1 is an important sensor of oxidative and electrophilic stress.  Normally the KEAP1/CUL3/RBX1 complex ubiquitinates and causes degradation of NRF2, a transcription factor regulating expression of many cytoprotective genes.  Oxidative stress results in the inability of KEAP1 to ubiquitinate NRF2, leading to the latter proteins accumulation and subsequent upregulation of genes involved in cellular oxidative stress responses.
