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
PLAGL2 Antibody: The PLAG (Pleiomorphic adenoma gene) family of zinc finger proteins include PLAG1, ZAC1 and PLAG-like 2 (PLAGL2). PLAG1 is the target gene for the pleiomorphic adenomas of the salivary gland. ZAC1 (PLAGL1) concomitantly controls apoptosis and cell cycle arrest through separate pathways. ZAC1 also acts as a transcriptional cofactor for nuclear receptors. PLAGL2 belongs to the krueppel C2H2-type zinc-finger protein family and contains 6 C2H2-type zinc fingers. It functions as a positive regulator of transcription and localizes to the nucleus. PLAGL2 is ubiquitously expressed with particular abundance in spleen, lung and testis, where it may be involved in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of tumor cells.
