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 | Apoptosis regulator that functions through different apoptotic signaling pathways (PubMed:23429263, PubMed:26015568, PubMed:26949185, PubMed:27098698, PubMed:9535847). Plays a roles as pro-apoptotic protein that positively regulates intrinsic apoptotic process in a BAX- and BAK1-dependent manner or in a BAX- and BAK1- independent manner (PubMed:23429263, PubMed:26015568, PubMed:26949185). In response to endoplasmic reticulum stress promotes mitochondrial apoptosis through downstream BAX/BAK1 activation and positive regulation of PERK-mediated unfolded protein response (PubMed:26015568). Activates apoptosis independently of heterodimerization with survival-promoting BCL2 and BCL2L1 through induction of mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization, in a BAX- and BAK1-independent manner, in response to inhibition of ERAD- proteasome degradation system, resulting in cytochrome c release (PubMed:9535847, PubMed:26949185). In response to DNA damage, mediates intrinsic apoptotic process in a TP53-dependent manner. Plays a role in granulosa cell apoptosis by CASP3 activation (By similarity). Plays a roles as anti-apoptotic protein during neuronal apoptotic process, by negatively regulating poly ADP-ribose polymerase-dependent cell death through regulation of neuronal calcium homeostasis and mitochondrial bioenergetics in response to NMDA excitation (PubMed:27098698). In addition to its role in apoptosis, may regulate trophoblast cell proliferation during the early stages of placental development, by acting on G1/S transition through regulation of CCNE1 expression.May also play a role as an inducer of autophagy by disrupting interaction between MCL1 and BECN1 (By similarity). |

Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network membrane. Membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9UMX3}. Note=Nuclear and cytoplasmic compartments in the early stages of apoptosis and during apoptosis associates with mitochondria. In healthy cells, associates loosely with the membrane in a hit-and-run mode. The insertion and accumulation on membranes is enhanced through the activity of death signals, resulting in the integration of the membrane-bound protein into the membrane (By similarity). The transmembrane domain controls subcellular localization; constitutes a tail-anchor (PubMed:23429263, PubMed:26949185). Localizes in early and late endosome upon blocking of apoptosis (PubMed:23429263). Must localize to the mitochondria to induce mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization and apoptosis (PubMed:26949185). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9UMX3, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23429263, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26949185} |
| Tissue Location | Widely expressed (PubMed:9535847, PubMed:23429263). Highly expressed in brain, kidney, and spleen (PubMed:27098698) |
