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 | Lipid-binding protein which shows high specificity for the surfactant phospholipid dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) (PubMed:25223608). Plays a role in the innate immune responses of the upper airways (PubMed:23132494, PubMed:23499554). Reduces the surface tension in secretions from airway epithelia and inhibits the formation of biofilm by pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria, such as P.aeruginosa and K.pneumoniae (PubMed:23132494, PubMed:23499554, PubMed:27145151). Negatively regulates proteolytic cleavage of SCNN1G, an event that is required for activation of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), and thereby contributes to airway surface liquid homeostasis and proper clearance of mucus (PubMed:24043776, PubMed:24124190). Plays a role in the airway inflammatory response after exposure to irritants (PubMed:11425234). May attract macrophages and neutrophils (PubMed:23132494). |
| Cellular Location | Secreted. Note=Apical side of airway epithelial cells. Detected in airway surface liquid, nasal mucus and sputum |
| Tissue Location | Highly expressed in lung, upper airways and nasopharyngeal regions, including trachea and nasal epithelium (at protein level) (PubMed:11018263, PubMed:11251963, PubMed:11425234, PubMed:12409287, PubMed:26559477). Specifically expressed in the secretory ducts and submucosal glands of tracheobronchial tissues (at protein level) (PubMed:11425234, PubMed:12409287). Also expressed in the eye where it is detected in lacrimal gland, eyelid, conjunctiva and cornea (at protein level) (PubMed:26559477). Specifically localizes to epithelial cell layers in cornea, eyelid (basal epithelium) and conjunctiva (at protein level) (PubMed:26559477). Detected within acinar cells and ducts in the lacrimal and Meibomian glands (at protein level) (PubMed:26559477). In lung, shows highest expression in the trachea and progressive decrease from proximal (bronchial) to distal (bronchiolar) airways (PubMed:12409287). Also expressed in lung cancers and some other types of cancer (PubMed:11251963) |
