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.

| Name | Nkx2-5 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | Csx, Nkx-2.5, Nkx2e |
| Function | Transcription factor required for the development of the heart and the spleen (PubMed:16556915, PubMed:19483677, PubMed:22560297, PubMed:9584153). During heart development, acts as a transcriptional activator of NPPA/ANF in cooperation with GATA4 (PubMed:9584153). May cooperate with TBX2 to negatively modulate expression of NPPA/ANF in the atrioventricular canal (PubMed:12023302). Binds to the core DNA motif of NPPA promoter (PubMed:19483677). Together with PBX1, required for spleen development through a mechanism that involves CDKN2B repression (PubMed:22560297). Positively regulates transcription of genes such as COL3A1 and MMP2, resulting in increased pulmonary endothelial fibrosis in response to hypoxia (By similarity). |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus. |
| Tissue Location | Predominantly in the adult and embryonic heart, and to a lesser extent in lingual muscle, spleen and stomach |

Background
Implicated in commitment to and/or differentiation of the myocardial lineage. Acts as a transcriptional activator of ANF in cooperation with GATA4. It is transcriptionally controlled by PBX1 and acts as a transcriptional repressor of CDKN2B. Together with PBX1, it is required for spleen development through a mechanism that involves CDKN2B repression.
