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.

| Function | Promotes growth and fasciculation of neurites from cultured hippocampal neurons. May be involved in fasciculation as well as myelination of developing neural axons. May have a role in regeneration as well as neural plasticity in the adult nervous system. May mediate homophilic as well as heterophilic cell-cell interaction and contribute to signal transduction through its intracellular domain. Assembled with KCNB1 modulates the gating characteristics of the delayed rectifier voltage-dependent potassium channel KCNB1. |

Background
The amphoterin-induced gene and ORF (AMIGO1) protein is a brain-enriched, glycosylated transmembrane immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily protein with six extracellular leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) and one Ig-like domain. It and the related proteins AMIGO2 and AMIGO3 are thought to be cell adhesion molecules expressed on fiber tracts of neuronal tissues and participate in their formation (1). AMIGO1 has also been suggested to play important roles in dendritic outgrowth during development and could modulate the survival of developing and adult neurons (2).
