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 | E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that acts as a negative regulator of BMP signaling pathway. Mediates ubiquitination and degradation of SMAD1 and SMAD5, 2 receptor-regulated SMADs specific for the BMP pathway. Promotes ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of TRAF family members and RHOA. Promotes ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of MAVS (PubMed:23087404). Acts as an antagonist of TGF-beta signaling by ubiquitinating TGFBR1 and targeting it for degradation (PubMed:21791611). Plays a role in dendrite formation by melanocytes (PubMed:23999003). |

Background
SMURF1 (SMAD ubiquitin regulatory factor 1) is a negative regulator of TGF-beta signaling (1). SMURF1 and SMURF2 are members of HECT domain E3 ubiquitin ligase which are involved in the enzymatic reactions of the Ub conjugating pathway (1,2). SMURF1 negatively regulates osteoblast activity and response to bone morphogenesis protein (BMP) through controlling MEKK2 degradation (3). SMURF1 has recently been shown to play a role in breast cancer cell migration and invasion through the downregulation of RhoA (4).
