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.

| Synonyms | SUI1 |
| Function | Component of the 43S pre-initiation complex (43S PIC), which binds to the mRNA cap-proximal region, scans mRNA 5'-untranslated region, and locates the initiation codon (PubMed:12435632, PubMed:14600024, PubMed:9732867). Together with eIF1A (EIF1AX), EIF1 facilitates scanning and is essential for start codon recognition on the basis of AUG nucleotide context and location relative to the 5'-cap (PubMed:12435632, PubMed:14600024, PubMed:9732867). Participates to initiation codon selection by influencing the conformation of the 40S ribosomal subunit and the positions of bound mRNA and initiator tRNA; this is possible after its binding to the interface surface of the platform of the 40S ribosomal subunit close to the P-site (PubMed:14600024). Together with eIF1A (EIF1AX), also regulates the opening and closing of the mRNA binding channel, which ensures mRNA recruitment, scanning and the fidelity of initiation codon selection (PubMed:9732867). Continuously monitors and protects against premature and partial base-pairing of codons in the 5'-UTR with the anticodon of initiator tRNA (PubMed:12435632, PubMed:9732867). Together with eIF1A (EIF1AX), acts for ribosomal scanning, promotion of the assembly of 48S complex at the initiation codon (43S PIC becomes 48S PIC after the start codon is reached), and dissociation of aberrant complexes (PubMed:9732867). Interacts with EIF4G1, which in a mutual exclusive interaction associates either with EIF1 or with EIF4E on a common binding site (PubMed:29987188). EIF4G1-EIF1 complex promotes ribosome scanning (on both short and long 5'UTR), leaky scanning (on short 5'UTR) which is the bypass of the initial start codon, and discrimination against cap-proximal AUG (PubMed:29987188). Is probably maintained within the 43S PIC in open conformation thanks to eIF1A-EIF5 interaction (PubMed:24319994). Once the correct start codon is reached, EIF1 is physically excluded from the decoding site, shifting the PIC into the closed conformation and arresting it at the start codon (PubMed:22813744). |
