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 | Functions as a sorting receptor in the Golgi compartment and as a clearance receptor on the cell surface. Required for protein transport from the Golgi apparatus to the lysosomes by a pathway that is independent of the mannose-6-phosphate receptor (M6PR). Lysosomal proteins bind specifically to the receptor in the Golgi apparatus and the resulting receptor-ligand complex is transported to an acidic prelysosomal compartment where the low pH mediates the dissociation of the complex (PubMed:16787399). The receptor is then recycled back to the Golgi for another round of trafficking through its binding to the retromer. Also required for protein transport from the Golgi apparatus to the endosomes. Promotes neuronal apoptosis by mediating endocytosis of the proapoptotic precursor forms of BDNF (proBDNF) and NGFB (proNGFB). Also acts as a receptor for neurotensin. May promote mineralization of the extracellular matrix during osteogenic differentiation by scavenging extracellular LPL. Probably required in adipocytes for the formation of specialized storage vesicles containing the glucose transporter SLC2A4/GLUT4 (GLUT4 storage vesicles, or GSVs). These vesicles provide a stable pool of SLC2A4 and confer increased responsiveness to insulin. May also mediate transport from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi. |

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single- pass type I membrane protein. Nucleus membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein; Extracellular side Lysosome membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note=Localized to membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum, endosomes, Golgi stack, lysosomes and nucleus. A small fraction of the protein is also localized to the plasma membrane.

Background
This gene encodes a protein that is a multi-ligand type-1receptor with similarity to the yeast carboxypeptidase Y sortingreceptor Vps10 protein. The encoded protein, a trans-Golgi network(TGN) transmembrane protein, binds a number of unrelated ligandsthat participate in a wide range of cellular processes; however, itlacks the typical features of a signalling receptor. In the TGN,furin mediates the activation of the mature binding form. Theencoded protein consists of a large luminal domain, a singletransmembrane segment and short C-terminal cytoplasmic tail. Theluminal domain contains a cysteine-rich region similar to twocorresponding segments in the yeast Vps10p; the cytoplasmic tail issimilar to the corresponding segment of the cation-independentmannose 6-phosphate receptor and the tail also interacts with theVHS domains of GGA (Golgi-associated, gamma-adaptin homologous,ARF-interacting) proteins.
