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.NSUN2 Antibody (Center) Blocking peptide

| Name | NSUN2 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | SAKI, TRM4 |
| Function | RNA methyltransferase that methylates tRNAs, and possibly RNA polymerase III transcripts. Methylates cytosine to 5- methylcytosine (m5C) at positions 34 and 48 of intron-containing tRNA(Leu)(CAA) precursors, and at positions 48, 49 and 50 of tRNA(Gly)(GCC) precursors. May act downstream of Myc to regulate epidermal cell growth and proliferation. Required for proper spindle assembly and chromosome segregation, independently of its methyltransferase activity. |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus, nucleolus. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle. Note=Concentrated in the nucleolus during interphase and translocates to the spindle during mitosis as an RNA-protein complex that includes 18S ribosomal RNA |
| Tissue Location | Expressed in adult and fetal brain and in lymphoblastoid cells. |

Background
Maturation of cytoplasmic tRNAs includes splicing ofintrons, which are located 1 nucleotide 3-prime from the anticodonin all intron-containing tRNA genes. In tRNA-leu(CAA), the firstposition of the anticodon, C34, is converted to 5-methylcytosine, amodification necessary to stabilize the anticodon-codon pairing andcorrectly translate the mRNA. NSUN2 encodes a methyltransferasethat catalyzes the intron-dependent formation of 5-methylcytosineat C34 of tRNA-leu(CAA) (Brzezicha et al., 2006 [PubMed17071714]).
