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
FLOT2 (Flotillin 2), also known as ESA1 or M17S1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FLOT2 gene. Schroeder et al. (1991) isolated a cDNA for an epidermal surface antigen believed to be involved in epidermal cell adhesion. By analysis of a somatic cell hybrid panel and in situ hybridization using the ESA cDNA, the gene was mapped to 17q11-q12 in the region containing the NF1 gene. Bickel et al. (1997) found that Flot2 consistently copurifies with Flot1 and with caveolin-1 in the purification of caveolin-rich membranes. Using a quantitative proteomic analysis of cultured neuronal stem cells, Li et al. (2012) found that palmitoylation and oligomerization of flotillin-2 was abolished in homozygous Dhhc5 mutant neuronal stem cells. The absolute amount of flotillin-2 was not changed in Dhhc5 mutant neurons.
