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.

|---|---|
| Synonyms | DS |
| Function | Catalyzes the NAD-dependent oxidative cleavage of spermidine and the subsequent transfer of the butylamine moiety of spermidine to the epsilon-amino group of a critical lysine residue of the eIF-5A precursor protein to form the intermediate deoxyhypusine residue (PubMed:30661771). This is the first step of the post-translational modification of that lysine into an unusual amino acid residue named hypusine. Hypusination is unique to mature eIF-5A factor and is essential for its function. |

Background
The unusual amino acid hypusine is formedposttranslationally and is only found in a single cellular protein,eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A. In the first step ofhypusine biosynthesis, deoxyhypusine synthase catalyzes theNAD-dependent transfer of the butylamine moiety of spermidine tothe epsilon-amino group of a specific lysine residue of the EIF5Aprecursor protein to form the intermediate deoxyhypusine residue.This gene consists of nine exons spanning 6.6 kb. Three transcriptvariants have been isolated. However, only transcript variant 1encodes an active protein. The shorter variants may act asmodulating factors of DHPS activity.
