Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

FBXO2 is a substrate-recognition subunit of the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that targets glycoproteins and non-glycoprotein substrates for ubiquitin-dependent degradation, functioning in ER-associated quality control, innate immunity, organelle homeostasis, and signaling regulation across neuronal and non-neuronal tissues. Its sugar-binding domain (SBD) recognizes high-mannose N-linked glycans (Man3GlcNAc2 core) on substrates including APP, GluN1, insulin receptor, CFTR, EBV glycoprotein B, and bacterial surface carbohydrates, directing them for K48-linked polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, while also mediating lysophagy and xenophagy by detecting exposed glycan moieties on damaged lysosomes and intracellular bacteria (PMID:15857118, PMID:24469452, PMID:27932386, PMID:30052682, PMID:32931479, PMID:34515398). Beyond glycan-dependent recognition, FBXO2 ubiquitinates non-glycosylated substrates (KPTN, WEE1, p53, USP49, YTHDF2, LCN2) through its F-box-associated (FBA) domain, thereby modulating mTORC1 signaling, cell cycle progression, ferroptosis, and mitophagy (PMID:41401028, PMID:40676478, PMID:39343799, PMID:40791152). In vivo, the majority of FBXO2 exists as Fbs1-Skp1 heterodimers rather than canonical SCF complexes, and this heterodimer independently suppresses glycoprotein aggregation as a chaperone; Fbxo2 knockout mice develop age-related cochlear degeneration and elevated NMDA receptor subunit levels, demonstrating its physiological importance in neuronal proteostasis (PMID:17215248, PMID:17494702, PMID:25878288).
