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.

| Name | KIF5A |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | NKHC1 |
| Function | Microtubule-dependent motor required for slow axonal transport of neurofilament proteins (NFH, NFM and NFL). Can induce formation of neurite-like membrane protrusions in non-neuronal cells in a ZFYVE27-dependent manner. The ZFYVE27-KIF5A complex contributes to the vesicular transport of VAPA, VAPB, SURF4, RAB11A, RAB11B and RTN3 proteins in neurons. Required for anterograde axonal transportation of MAPK8IP3/JIP3 which is essential for MAPK8IP3/JIP3 function in axon elongation. |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, perinuclear region {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q6QLM7}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q6QLM7}. Perikaryon {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q6QLM7}. Note=Concentrated in the cell body of the neurons, particularly in the perinuclear region {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q6QLM7} |
| Tissue Location | Distributed throughout the CNS but is highly enriched in subsets of neurons |
