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.

| Synonyms | NACHRA5 |
| Function | Component of neuronal acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) that function as pentameric, ligand-gated cation channels with high calcium permeability among other activities. nAChRs are excitatory neurotrasnmitter receptors formed by a collection of nAChR subunits known to mediate synaptic transmission in the nervous system and the neuromuscular junction. Each nAchR subunit confers differential attributes to channel properties, including activation, deactivation and desensitization kinetics, pH sensitivity, cation permeability, and binding to allosteric modulators (PubMed:20881005, PubMed:8663494). Has an accessory rather than functional role and is only able to form functional nAChRs when co-assembled with another beta subunit (PubMed:20881005, PubMed:8663494). Participates in pentameric assemblies along with CHRNA3, CHRNA4, CHRNB2 and CHRNB4 (PubMed:20881005, PubMed:8663494). Increases receptor sensitivity to acetylcholine and nicotine when associated with CHRNA4 and CHRNB2 (PubMed:8663494). Plays a role in nicotine addiction (PubMed:20881005). |
