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.

Background
Members of the G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily contain 7 transmembrane domains and transduce extracellular signals through heterotrimeric G proteins. The organization of the GPR17 gene differs from that of many other GPCRs in that the open reading frame is distributed on 2 exons; an additional exon contains the 5 prime untranslated region. Human GPR17 is expressed as 2.3 and 6.3 kb mRNAs exclusively in brain. The 2 transcripts appear to represent alternatively polyadenylated variants. Based on protein sequence homology and the conservation of certain key residues, GPR17 appears to be closely related to the P2Y family of GPCRs. There are two nemed isoforms.
