β-TrCP plays an important role in diverse cellular processes such as the cell cycle and inflammation. Here the authors develop a biosensor for β-TrCP activity and use it to investigate β-TrCP dynamics during the cell cycle, and to screen a small-molecule library for β-TrCP activators and inhibitors.
