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 | Plays a role in angiogenesis. Participates in the regulation of cell polarity and directional endothelial cell migration by mediating both the activation and recruitment of CDC42 and the reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton at the cell leading edge. Promotes filipodia formation (By similarity). Functions synergistically with PELP1 as a transcriptional coactivator of estrogen receptor- responsive genes. Stimulates histone acetyltransferase activity. Binds to chromatin. Plays a regulatory role in autophagic activity. In complex with PHAF1, associates with the preautophagosomal structure during both non-selective and selective autophagy (PubMed:33499712). Probably binds phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PtdIns3P) which would mediate the recruitment preautophagosomal structures (PubMed:33499712). |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8CCN5}. Preautophagosomal structure. Note=Localizes in the cytoplasm in stationary cells. Translocates from the cytoplasm to the leading edge in motile cells. Colocalizes with microtubules and intermediate filaments in both stationary and motile cells (By similarity) Associates with chromatin. Recruited to estrogen receptor-induced promoters in a PELP1-dependent manner. The BCAS3:PHAF1 complex is recruited to the preautophagosomal structures adjacent to the damaged mitochondria upon mitophagy in a PRKN-PINK1 dependent manner (PubMed:33499712). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8CCN5, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17505058, ECO:0000269|PubMed:33499712} |
| Tissue Location | Expressed in stomach, liver, lung, kidney, prostate, testis, thyroid gland, adrenal gland, brain, heart, skeletal muscle, colon, spleen, small intestine, placenta, blood leukocyte and mammary epithelial cells. Expressed in undifferentiated ES cells Expressed in blood islands and nascent blood vessels derived from differentiated ES cells into embryoid bodies (BD). Expressed in endothelial cells. Not detected in brain. Expressed in brain tumors (at protein level). Expressed in brain. Highly expressed in breast cancers and in glioma cell lines. |

Background
Breast cancer amplified sequence 3 (BCAS3) was identified as a gene overexpressed and amplified in breast cancer cell lines. BCAS3 expression has been shown to be regulated by estrogen receptor alpha (ER alpha) and its coregulator PELP1 (proline-, glutamic acid-, and leucine-rich protein 1). BCAS3 has also been demonstrated to act as a coactivator of ER alpha activity in breast cancer cells and associate with the histone acetyltransferase complex protein P/CAF (p300/CBP-associated factor).
