The SCFFbw7 ubiquitin ligase mediates growth-factor-regulated turnover of the Myc oncoprotein. Here we show that SCF beta-TrCP binds to Myc by means of a characteristic phosphodegron and ubiquitylates Myc; this results in enhanced Myc stability. SCFFbw7 and SCF beta-TrCP can exert these differential effects through polyubiquitylation of the amino terminus of Myc. Whereas SCFFbw7 with the Cdc34 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme specifically requires lysine 48 (K48) of ubiquitin, SCF beta-TrCP uses the UbcH5 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme to form heterotypic polyubiquitin chains on Myc. Ubiquitylation of Myc by SCF beta-TrCP is required for Myc-dependent acceleration of cell cycle progression after release from an arrest in S phase. Therefore, alternative ubiquitylation events at the N terminus can lead to the ubiquitylation-dependent stabilization of Myc.
