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
AIG1 Antibody: Androgen-induced 1 (AIG1) is a novel Pirh2-interacting protein, which was initially cloned from human dermal papilla cells and is evolutionally conserved from drosophila through to humans. It is a membrane protein and belongs to the protein family containing FAR-17a domain. AIG1 may play a role in androgen-regulated growth of hair follicles. AIG1 could serve as a new biomarker for the diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of HCCs and may be a novel candidate tumor suppressor.
