one of these words is not like the others...

Excerpt from an article by The Endocrine Society:
[...]Atrogin-1, also known as MAFbx, is a member of the SCF (Skp-cullin-F box protein complex) subfamily of E3 ligases; MuRF1 belongs to the RING (really interesting new gene) finger E3 ligase subfamily. [...]
Seriously, this is what it says.
