Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.

|---|---|
| Function | Binds to actin filaments in muscle and non-muscle cells (PubMed:7568216). Plays a central role, in association with the troponin complex, in the calcium dependent regulation of vertebrate striated muscle contraction (By similarity). Smooth muscle contraction is regulated by interaction with caldesmon (By similarity). In non- muscle cells is implicated in stabilizing cytoskeleton actin filaments (By similarity). Binds calcium (By similarity). |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Note=Associates with F-actin stress fibers (PubMed:7568216). |

Background
The tropomyosins are a family of actin filament binding proteins. These proteins were first isolated from skeletal muscle, but later identified in many nonmuscle tissues. Tropomyosins are ubiquitous proteins of 35 to 45 kD associated with the actin filaments of myofibrils and stress fibers. Vertebrates have at least 4 different tropomyosin genes; in humans, they are named TPM1, TPM2, TPM3, and TPM4. Tropomyosins expressed as different isoforms in muscle and non-muscle cells.
