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 | Deubiquitinating enzyme that removes conjugated ubiquitin from target proteins (PubMed:16316627, PubMed:16339847, PubMed:16472766, PubMed:20595234, PubMed:22347420, PubMed:25404403, PubMed:28604766, PubMed:30514904). Deubiquitinates PDPK1 (PubMed:22347420). Deubiquitinates TRIM21 (PubMed:16316627). Deubiquitinates receptor ADORA2A which increases the amount of functional receptor at the cell surface (PubMed:16339847). Deubiquitinates HAS2 (PubMed:28604766). Deubiquitinates RHEB in response to EGF signaling, promoting mTORC1 signaling (PubMed:30514904). May regulate mRNA splicing through deubiquitination of the U4 spliceosomal protein PRPF3 (PubMed:20595234). This may prevent its recognition by the U5 component PRPF8 thereby destabilizing interactions within the U4/U6.U5 snRNP (PubMed:20595234). May also play a role in the regulation of quality control in the ER (PubMed:16339847). |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm. Exported to the cytoplasm in a CRM1-dependent manner and recycled back to the nucleus via the importin alpha/beta heterodimeric import receptor. The relative amounts found in the nucleus and cytoplasm vary according to the cell type |
| Tissue Location | Overexpressed in small cell tumors and adenocarcinomas of the lung compared to wild-type lung (at protein level). Expressed in the hippocampal neurons |

Background
Hydrolase that deubiquitinates target proteins such as the receptor ADORA2A and TRIM21. Deubiquitination of ADORA2A increases the amount of functional receptor at the cell surface. Plays a role in the regulation of quality control in the ER.
