Substrate-recognition component of a Cul7-RING ubiquitin- protein ligase complex, which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. The Cul7- RING(FBXW8) complex mediates ubiquitination and consequent degradation of GORASP1, acting as a component of the ubiquitin ligase pathway that regulates Golgi morphogenesis and dendrite patterning in brain. The Cul7-RING(FBXW8) complex also mediates ubiquitination of MAP4K1/HPK1: recognizes and binds autophosphorylated MAP4K1/HPK1, leading to its degradation, thereby affecting cell proliferation and differentiation. Associated component of the 3M complex, suggesting that it mediates some of 3M complex functions (By similarity). {By
