The APC/C-Cdh1 (anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome) targets numerous cell cycle proteins for ubiquitin mediated degradation in late mitosis and G(1). The KEN box is one of two major recognition motifs of APC/C-Cdh1 substrates. This motif is however very common and shared by a tenth of the human proteome, the vast majority of which are obviously not APC/C substrates. We have observed that most known functional KEN boxes are followed by a proline residue and show that this proline plays a role in APC/C-Cdh1 specific degradation. This insight can be instrumental for identifying novel APC/C-Cdh1 substrates. We used this KENxP motif to identify human Aurora B and Kid as APC/C-Cdh1 substrates. The degradation of Xenopus XKid at metaphase by APC/C-Cdc20 is essential for chromatid segregation. Human Kid in contrast is degraded later and its APC/C-Cdh1 specific degradation is not required for mitotic progress. It is thus likely that Kid inactivation in G1 takes place both by nuclear sequestration and degradation by the APC/C-Cdh1.
