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.

| Name | CACNA2D2 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | KIAA0558 |
| Function | The alpha-2/delta subunit of voltage-dependent calcium channels regulates calcium current density and activation/inactivation kinetics of the calcium channel. Acts as a regulatory subunit for P/Q- type calcium channel (CACNA1A), N-type (CACNA1B), L-type (CACNA1C OR CACNA1D) and possibly T-type (CACNA1G) (PubMed:15111129, PubMed:23339110). Overexpression induces apoptosis. |
| Cellular Location | Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note=Colocalizes with CACNA1A in lipid raft fractions. |
| Tissue Location | Predominantly present in cerebellar cortex. Present in various lung tumor cell lines, while it is absent in normal lung (at protein level). Highly expressed in heart, lung, testis, pancreas and skeletal muscle. Also expressed in kidney, liver, placenta and brain |

Background
This gene encodes a member of the alpha-2/delta subunitfamily, a protein in the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex.Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cellupon membrane polarization and consist of a complex of alpha-1,alpha-2/delta, beta, and gamma subunits in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. Variousversions of each of these subunits exist, either expressed fromsimilar genes or the result of alternative splicing. Research on ahighly similar protein in rabbit suggests the protein described inthis record is cleaved into alpha-2 and delta subunits. Alternatetranscriptional splice variants of this gene, encoding differentisoforms, have been characterized.
