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 | May play a role in apoptosis by acting as a cell death substrate for caspases. Is cleaved during apoptosis and the cleaved form induces dramatic rearrangements of the actin cytoskeleton and potent changes in the shape of the affected cells. May be involved in the membrane ruffling process (By similarity). |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, stress fiber. Membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11862}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11862} Note=Component of the microfilament system. Colocalizes with actin fibers at the cell border and along the stress fibers in growth- arrested fibroblasts. Mainly membrane-associated. When hyperphosphorylated, accumulates at membrane ruffles {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P11862} |
| Tissue Location | Ubiquitously expressed with highest levels in liver, lung, and kidney. Not found in spleen |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a caspase-3 substratethat plays a role in regulating microfilament and cell shapechanges during apoptosis. It can also modulate cell susceptibilityto p53-dependent apoptosis by inhibiting calpain activity. Multiplealternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, havebeen identified.
