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.

| DISEASE | Defects in GAMT are the cause of guanidinoacetate methyltransferase deficiency (GAMT deficiency) [MIM:612736]. GAMT deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by developmental delay/regression, mental retardation, severe disturbance of expressive and cognitive speech, intractable seizures and movement disturbances, severe depletion of creatine/phosphocreatine in the brain, and accumulation of guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) in brain and body fluids. |

| Background Descriptions | In the creatine biosynthesis pathway, glycine is converted to guanidinoacetate by amidinotransferase, and guanidinoacetate is then converted to creatine by Guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase (GAMT). GAMT, a methyltransferase, uses S-adenosylmethionine as the methyl donor for this reaction. Methyltransferases are a type of transferase enzyme which transfers a methyl group to nucleic bases in DNA or amino acids in protein. Encoding a 236 amino acid protein, the human GAMT gene maps to chromosome 19p13.3. Defects in the GAMT gene leads to GAMT deficiency, which is associated with guanidinoacetate accumulation and decreased levels of creatine excretion in brain. Such biochemical changes are thought to lead to various neurological syndromes and muscular hypotonia. |
