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 | Sox2 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | Sox-2 |
| Function | Transcription factor that forms a trimeric complex with POU5F1 (OCT3/4) on DNA and controls the expression of a number of genes involved in embryonic development such as YES1, FGF4, UTF1 and ZFP206 (PubMed:15863505, PubMed:17097055, PubMed:19740739, PubMed:32703285). Binds to the proximal enhancer region of NANOG (PubMed:15863505). Critical for early embryogenesis and for embryonic stem cell pluripotency (By similarity). Downstream SRRT target that mediates the promotion of neural stem cell self-renewal (PubMed:22198669). Keeps neural cells undifferentiated by counteracting the activity of proneural proteins and suppresses neuronal differentiation (By similarity). May function as a switch in neuronal development (By similarity). |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00267, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17097055, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19349578, ECO:0000269|PubMed:32127020}. Cytoplasm Note=Nuclear import is facilitated by XPO4, a protein that usually acts as a nuclear export signal receptor. |
| Tissue Location | Expressed in the cochlea (at protein level) (PubMed:32127020). Expressed in the brain and retina (PubMed:7590241, PubMed:15863505). A very low level of expression is seen in the stomach and lung (PubMed:7590241, PubMed:15863505). Expressed in the kidney (PubMed:15863505). |
