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 | PVR |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | PVS |
| Function | Mediates NK cell adhesion and triggers NK cell effector functions. Binds two different NK cell receptors: CD96 and CD226. These interactions accumulates at the cell-cell contact site, leading to the formation of a mature immunological synapse between NK cell and target cell. This may trigger adhesion and secretion of lytic granules and IFN-gamma and activate cytotoxicity of activated NK cells. May also promote NK cell-target cell modular exchange, and PVR transfer to the NK cell. This transfer is more important in some tumor cells expressing a lot of PVR, and may trigger fratricide NK cell activation, providing tumors with a mechanism of immunoevasion. Plays a role in mediating tumor cell invasion and migration. |
| Cellular Location | [Isoform Alpha]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein [Isoform Beta]: Secreted. |

Background
The poliovirus receptor (PVR) is a transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. PVR is involved in intercellular adhesion and its cytoplasmic domain may target endocytic vesicles to the microtubular network. The extracellular domain of PVR mediates cell attachment to the extracellular matrix molecule vitronectin, while its cytoplasmic domain interacts with the dynein light chain Tctex-1. PVR is a primate-restricted protein expressed during development in mesenchymal tissues and ventrally derived structures within the CNS. Its exact biological function remains to be determined; it is reported that PVR is aberrantly expressed in tumors of neuroectodermal origin.
