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 | Pore-forming subunit of two major inward rectifying Ca(2+) channels at the plasma membrane: Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels and arachidonate-regulated Ca(2+)-selective (ARC) channels (Probable) (PubMed:16645049, PubMed:16733527, PubMed:16807233, PubMed:16921383, PubMed:19249086, PubMed:19706554, PubMed:23307288, PubMed:26956484, PubMed:28219928). Assembles with ORAI2 and ORAI3 to form hexameric CRAC channels that mediate Ca(2+) influx upon depletion of endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) store and channel activation by Ca(2+) sensor STIM1, a process known as store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE). Various pore subunit combinations may account for distinct CRAC channel spatiotemporal and cell-type specific dynamics. ORAI1 mainly contributes to the generation of Ca(2+) plateaus involved in sustained Ca(2+) entry and is dispensable for cytosolic Ca(2+) oscillations, whereas ORAI2 and ORAI3 generate oscillatory patterns. CRAC channels assemble in Ca(2+) signaling microdomains where Ca(2+) influx is coupled to calmodulin and calcineurin signaling and activation of NFAT transcription factors recruited to ORAI1 via AKAP5. Activates NFATC2/NFAT1 and NFATC3/NFAT4-mediated transcriptional responses. CRAC channels are the main pathway for Ca(2+) influx in T cells and promote the immune response to pathogens by activating NFAT-dependent cytokine and chemokine transcription (PubMed:16582901, PubMed:17442569, PubMed:19182790, PubMed:20354224, PubMed:22641696, PubMed:26221052, PubMed:32415068, PubMed:33941685). Assembles with ORAI3 to form channels that mediate store-independent Ca(2+) influx in response to inflammatory metabolites arachidonate or its derivative leukotriene C4, termed ARC and LRC channels respectively (PubMed:19622606, PubMed:32415068). Plays a prominent role in Ca(2+) influx at the basolateral membrane of mammary epithelial cells independently of the Ca(2+) content of endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi stores. May mediate transepithelial transport of large quantities of Ca(2+) for milk secretion (By similarity) (PubMed:20887894). |

Background
ORAI1(ORAI calcium release-activated calcium modulator 1), also known as CRACM1, TMEM142A, Calcium release-activated calcium channel protein 1, Protein orai-1, Transmembrane protein 142A, FLJ14466, is a calcium selective ion channel that in humans is encoded by the ORAI1 gene. Orai1 channels play an important role in the activation of T-lymphocytes. The loss of function mutation of Orai1 causes severe combined immunodeficiency(SCID) in humans. The mammalian orai family has two additional homologs, orai2 and orai3. Orai proteins share no homology with any other ion channel family of any other known proteins. They have 4 transmembrane domains and form tetramers. Prakriya et al.(2006) showed that ORAI1 is a PM protein, and that CRAC channel function is sensitive to mutation of 2 conserved acidic residues in the transmembrane segments. Glu106-to-asp(E106D) and glu190-to-gln(E190Q) substitutions in transmembrane helices 1 and 3, respectively, diminished calcium ion influx, increased current carried by monovalent cations, and rendered the channel permeable to cesium ion. Prakriya et al.(2006) showed that ORAI1 is a PM protein, and that CRAC channel function is sensitive to mutation of 2 conserved acidic residues in the transmembrane segments.
