The APC/C is a large multiprotein complex that functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase to regulate the cell cycle. Here, the entire APC/C complex is reconstituted, and in combination with structural studies a pseudo-atomic model for 70% of the complex is provided. These results contribute towards a molecular understanding of the roles of individual subunits in APC/C assembly and their interactions with co-activators, substrates and regulatory proteins.
