Which of the following types of ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation is involved in the regulation of cell cycle progression?

A Proteasome-independent degradation
B Lysosomal degradation
C Proteasome-dependent degradation ✓
D Autophagic degradation

Explanation

The proteasome-dependent degradation pathway, which involves the attachment of ubiquitin molecules to target proteins, plays a crucial role in regulating cell cycle progression by degrading key cell cycle regulators.
