Ontology: Cellular Component (GO:0019005)
Definition: A ubiquitin ligase complex in which a cullin from the Cul1 subfamily and a RING domain protein form the catalytic core; substrate specificity is conferred by a Skp1 adaptor and an F-box protein. SCF complexes are involved in targeting proteins for degradation by the proteasome. The best characterized complexes are those from yeast and mammals (with core subunits named Cdc53/Cul1, Rbx1/Hrt1/Roc1).
Synonyms: CDL1 complex; CRL1 complex; Cul1-RING ubiquitin ligase complex; cullin-RING ligase 1; SCF complex; SCF complex substrate recognition subunit; Skp1/Cul1/F-box protein complex
