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.

| Synonyms | Riz |
| Function | S-adenosyl-L-methionine-dependent histone methyltransferase that specifically methylates 'Lys-9' of histone H3. May function as a DNA-binding transcription factor. Binds to the macrophage-specific TPA- responsive element (MTE) of the HMOX1 (heme oxygenase 1) gene and may act as a transcriptional activator of this gene (By similarity). |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus. |

Background
PRDM2 is a 250-kD nuclear protein containing 8 zinc finger motifs. It contains an RB-binding motif that is related to that of the adenovirus E1A oncoprotein; RIZ also shares an antigenic epitope with the C terminus of E1A. It is expressed in human retinoblastoma cells and at low levels in all other human cell lines examined. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization, the PRDM2 gene has been mapped to 1p36. PRDM2 may be a candidate target of 1p36 alterations that commonly occur in neuroendocrine, breast, liver, colon, skin, and lymphoid tumors.
