The function of FBXL7 (F-box and leucine rich repeat protein 7, Ensembl gene identifier ENSG00000183580) is as follows. Substrate recognition component of a SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex (PubMed:25778398). During mitosis, it mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of AURKA, causing mitotic arrest (By similarity). It also regulates mitochondrial function by mediating the ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of the apoptosis inhibitor BIRC5 (PubMed:25778398, PubMed:28218735). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5BJ29, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25778398, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28218735}.
