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.

Background
RABEX5 Antibody: RABEX5 is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that forms a complex with rabaptin-5 and specifically activates Rab5, a small GTPase that plays an essential role in endocytic traffic. RABEX-5 is thought to also interact with another member of the Rab family, Rab22, which targets RABEX5 to early endosomes, allowing it to activate Rab5 and thereby promote Rab5-mediated endosome fusion.
