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 | DNA repair protein involved in DNA non-homologous end joining (NHEJ); required for double-strand break (DSB) repair and V(D)J recombination (PubMed:16439204, PubMed:16439205, PubMed:17717001, PubMed:17317666, PubMed:17470781, PubMed:18644470, PubMed:20558749, PubMed:26100018, PubMed:18158905). Plays a key role in NHEJ by promoting the ligation of various mismatched and non-cohesive ends (PubMed:17717001, PubMed:17470781, PubMed:19056826). Together with PAXX, collaborates with DNA polymerase lambda (POLL) to promote joining of non-cohesive DNA ends (PubMed:30250067, PubMed:25670504). May act in concert with XRCC5-XRCC6 (Ku) to stimulate XRCC4-mediated joining of blunt ends and several types of mismatched ends that are non- complementary or partially complementary (PubMed:16439204, PubMed:16439205, PubMed:17317666, PubMed:17470781). In some studies, has been shown to associate with XRCC4 to form alternating helical filaments that bridge DNA and act like a bandage, holding together the broken DNA until it is repaired (PubMed:22228831, PubMed:26100018, PubMed:28500754, PubMed:27437582, PubMed:21775435, PubMed:22287571, PubMed:21768349). Alternatively, it has also been shown that rather than forming filaments, a single NHEJ1 dimer interacts through both head domains with XRCC4 to promote the close alignment of DNA ends (By similarity). The XRCC4-NHEJ1/XLF subcomplex binds to the DNA fragments of a DSB in a highly diffusive manner and robustly bridges two independent DNA molecules, holding the broken DNA fragments in close proximity to one other (PubMed:28500754, PubMed:27437582). The mobility of the bridges ensures that the ends remain accessible for further processing by other repair factors (PubMed:27437582). Binds DNA in a length-dependent manner (PubMed:17317666, PubMed:18158905). |

Background
XLF (also called Cernunnos) interacts with the XRCC4-DNA ligase IV complex to promote DNA non-homologous end-joining. It directly interacts with the XRCC4-Ligase IV complex and siRNA-mediated downregulation of XLF in human cell lines leads to radio-sensitivity and impaired DNA non-homologous end-joining. XLF is homologous to the yeast non-homologous end-joining factor Nej1.
