cl02533: SOCS Superfamily 
SOCS (suppressors of cytokine signaling) box. The SOCS box is found in the C-terminal region of CIS/SOCS family proteins (in combination with a SH2 domain), ASBs (ankyrin repeat-containing proteins with a SOCS box), SSBs (SPRY domain-containing proteins with a SOCS box), and WSBs (WD40 repeat-containing proteins with a SOCS box), as well as, other miscellaneous proteins. The function of the SOCS box is the recruitment of the ubiquitin-transferase system. The SOCS box interacts with Elongins B and C, Cullin-5 or Cullin-2, Rbx-1, and E2. Therefore, SOCS-box-containing proteins probably function as E3 ubiquitin ligases and mediate the degradation of proteins associated through their N-terminal regions.
