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 | SLC1A2 (HGNC:10940) |
|---|---|
| Function | Sodium-dependent, high-affinity amino acid transporter that mediates the uptake of L-glutamate and also L-aspartate and D-aspartate (PubMed:7521911, PubMed:14506254, PubMed:15265858, PubMed:26690923). Functions as a symporter that transports one amino acid molecule together with two or three Na(+) ions and one proton, in parallel with the counter-transport of one K(+) ion (PubMed:14506254). Mediates Cl(-) flux that is not coupled to amino acid transport; this avoids the accumulation of negative charges due to aspartate and Na(+) symport (PubMed:14506254). Essential for the rapid removal of released glutamate from the synaptic cleft, and for terminating the postsynaptic action of glutamate (By similarity). |
| Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein |

Background
This gene encodes a member of a family of solutetransporter proteins. The membrane-bound protein is the principaltransporter that clears the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamatefrom the extracellular space at synapses in the central nervoussystem. Glutamate clearance is necessary for proper synapticactivation and to prevent neuronal damage from excessive activationof glutamate receptors. Mutations in and decreased expression ofthis protein are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.Alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have beenidentified.
