atrogin-1 atrogin-1 An E3 ubiquitin ligase expressed in cardiac and skeletal muscle that directs muscle protein degradation after the muscle atrophy response has been triggered by Akt1-induced phosphorylation of FOXO, a transcription factor which also activates ubiquitin ligases and MuRF-1. Atrogin-deficient mice are resistant to muscle atrophy. |
