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.

| Name | PTK7 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | CCK4 |
| Function | Inactive tyrosine kinase involved in Wnt signaling pathway. Component of both the non-canonical (also known as the Wnt/planar cell polarity signaling) and the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. Functions in cell adhesion, cell migration, cell polarity, proliferation, actin cytoskeleton reorganization and apoptosis. Has a role in embryogenesis, epithelial tissue organization and angiogenesis. |
| Cellular Location | Membrane; Single- pass type I membrane protein. Cell junction. Note=Colocalizes with MMP14 at cell junctions. Also localizes at the leading edge of migrating cells |
| Tissue Location | Highly expressed in lung, liver, pancreas, kidney, placenta and melanocytes. Weakly expressed in thyroid gland, ovary, brain, heart and skeletal muscle. Also expressed in erythroleukemia cells. But not expressed in colon |
Provided below are standard protocols that you may find useful for product applications.
Background
CCK4 may function as a cell adhesion molecule. Although it belongs to the insuline receptor subfamily of the Tyr protein kinases, it likely lacks the catalytic activity of a tyrosine kinase. It may be connected to the pathophysiology of colon carcinomas and/or may represent a tumor progression marker. This Type I membrane protein is highly expressed in lung, liver, pancreas, kidney, placenta and melanocytes, but weakly expressed in thyroid gland, ovary, brain, heart and skeletal muscle, and not in colon. It is also expressed in erythroleukemia cells.
