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.

| Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Precautions | KCNJ18 Antibody (N-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
| Name | KCNJ18 |
|---|---|
| Function | Inward rectifier potassium channels are characterized by a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the cell rather than out of it. Their voltage dependence is regulated by the concentration of extracellular potassium; as external potassium is raised, the voltage range of the channel opening shifts to more positive voltages. The inward rectification is mainly due to the blockage of outward current by internal magnesium. |
| Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |
| Tissue Location | Specifically expressed in skeletal muscle. |

Background
Inwardly rectifying potassium channels, such as KCNJ18, maintain resting membrane potential in excitable cells and aid in repolarization of cells following depolarization. KCNJ18 is primarily expressed in skeletal muscle and is transcriptionally regulated by thyroid hormone (Ryan et al., 2010 [PubMed 20074522]).
