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 | Putative transmembrane transporter that plays a role in mitochondrial metabolism via an as yet unclear mechanism (PubMed:21775425, PubMed:36114012). Originally, this mitochondrial protein was thought to act as a proton transmembrane transporter from the mitochondrial intermembrane space into the matrix, causing proton leaks through the inner mitochondrial membrane, thereby uncoupling mitochondrial membrane potential generation from ATP synthesis (PubMed:9305858, PubMed:11171965, PubMed:12670931, PubMed:12734183). However, this function is controversial and uncoupling may not be the function, or at least not the main function, but rather a consequence of more conventional metabolite transporter activity (PubMed:11707458). |
| Cellular Location | Mitochondrion inner membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P56501}; Multi-pass membrane protein |
| Tissue Location | Only in skeletal muscle and heart (PubMed:9305858). Also expressed in white and brown adipose tissues (PubMed:9305858). Is more expressed in glycolytic than in oxidative skeletal muscles |

Background
UCP are mitochondrial transporter proteins that create proton leaks across the inner mitochondrial membrane, thus uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation. As a result, energy is dissipated in the form of heat. May play a role in the modulation of tissue respiratory control. Participates in thermogenesis and energy balance.
