Background
Latexin possesses nearly irreversible, non-competitive and potent inhibition of zinc-dependent metallocarboxypeptidases CPA1, CPA2, and CPA4. It is expressed in a neuronal subset in the cerebral cortex and cells in other neural and non-neural tissues of rat. Latexin plays a role in regional specification and/or morphogenesis of the forebrain.

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.
