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 | Channel that allows the facilitated permeation of water and uncharged molecules, such as hydrogen peroxide and the neutral form of ammonia (NH3), through cellular membranes such as plasma membrane, inner mitochondrial membrane and endoplasmic reticulum membrane of several tissues (PubMed:15988592, PubMed:9299432, PubMed:9374520, PubMed:31372390, PubMed:33892285, PubMed:12774023, PubMed:15948717, PubMed:16177191, PubMed:16624991, PubMed:17189259, PubMed:18059526, PubMed:20132793, PubMed:23299935, PubMed:15749715). The transport of ammonia neutral form induces a parallel transport of proton, at alkaline pH when the concentration of ammonia is high (PubMed:15988592). However, it is unclear whether the transport of proton takes place via the aquaporin or via an endogenous pathway (PubMed:15988592). Also, may transport ammonia analogs such as formamide and methylamine, a transport favourited at basic pH due to the increase of unprotonated (neutral) form, which is expected to favor diffusion (PubMed:15988592, PubMed:15749715, PubMed:15948717). Does not transport urea or glycerol (PubMed:15948717). The water transport mechanism is mercury- and copper-sensitive and passive in response to osmotic driving forces (PubMed:9374520, PubMed:9299432, PubMed:18059526, PubMed:20132793). At the canicular plasma membrane, mediates the osmotic transport of water toward the bile canaliculus and facilitates the cAMP-induced bile canalicular water secretion, a process involved in bile formation (By similarity). In addition, mediates the hydrogen peroxide release from hepatocyte mitochondria that modulates the SREBF2-mediated cholesterol synthesis and facilitates the mitochondrial ammonia uptake which is metabolized into urea, mainly under glucagon stimulation (PubMed:23299935, PubMed:20132793, PubMed:31372390). In B cells, transports the CYBB- generated hydrogen peroxide from the external leaflet of the plasma membrane to the cytosol to promote B cell activation and differentiation for signal amplification (By similarity). In the small intestine and colon system, mediates water transport through mitochondria and apical membrane of epithelial cells (PubMed:15749715, PubMed:18059526, PubMed:16177191). May play an important role in the adaptive response of proximal tubule cells to acidosis possibly facilitating mitochondrial ammonia transport (By similarity). |

Basolateral cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P56404}; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=Localized at the hepatocyte canalicular plasma membrane (PubMed:11436986, PubMed:12774023). Localized at the apical membrane of the gall-bladder epithelial cells lining both the neck and corpus regions (By similarity). Localized on the apical membranes of pancreatic acinar cells and mucosal epithelium of the colon and jejunum (PubMed:11436986, PubMed:16177191). Trafficking from intracellular vesicles to the hepatocyte canalicular plasma membrane is induced by glucagon or the second messenger 3',5'-cyclic AMP and the translocation is protein kinase A and microtubule-dependent (PubMed:12774023, PubMed:11278499). Localized at the brush border membranes of epithelial cells from jejunum (PubMed:18059526). Localized at the luminal membranes of crypts in ascending colon (By similarity) {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P56404, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11278499, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11436986, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12774023, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16177191, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18059526} |
