A portion of amino acids 56-94 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for the APC11 antibody.
Anaphase-promoting complex subunit 11, together with the cullin protein ANAPC2, constitutes the catalytic component of the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C), a cell cycle-regulated E3 ubiquitin ligase that controls progression through mitosis and the G1 phase of the cell cycle. The APC/C complex acts by mediating ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of target proteins: it mainly mediates the formation of Lys-11-linked polyubiquitin chains and, to a lower extent, the formation of Lys-48- and Lys-63-linked polyubiquitin chains. May recruit the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes to the complex.
