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 | [Isoform 1]: Essential for normal retinal maturation and development (By similarity). Acts as a retinal cell surface receptor for NXNL1 and plays an important role in NXNL1-mediated survival of retinal cone photoreceptors (PubMed:25957687). In association with glucose transporter SLC16A1/GLUT1 and NXNL1, promotes retinal cone survival by enhancing aerobic glycolysis and accelerating the entry of glucose into photoreceptors (PubMed:25957687). May act as a potent stimulator of IL6 secretion in multiple cell lines that include monocytes (PubMed:21620857). |
| Cellular Location | Melanosome. Note=Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV. [Isoform 2]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P26453}. Endosome Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single- pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P26453} Basolateral cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P26453} [Isoform 4]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P26453} |
| Tissue Location | [Isoform 1]: Retina-specific (PubMed:25957687). Expressed in retinal cone photoreceptors (at protein level) (PubMed:25957687). [Isoform 3]: Highly expressed in the bone marrow, fetal liver, lung, testis and thymus. |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a plasma membraneprotein that is important in spermatogenesis, embryo implantation,neural network formation, and tumor progression. The encodedprotein is also a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily.Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have beenfound for this gene.
