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 | Host-defense peptide that maintains sterility in the urogenital system (PubMed:12021776, PubMed:12660734, PubMed:15616305, PubMed:19589339, PubMed:22359618, PubMed:22573326, PubMed:25354318, PubMed:25782105, PubMed:30808760). Has antimicrobial activity against a wide range of bacteria, including Gram-negative E.coli, P.aeruginosa and S.typhimurium, and Gram-positive E.aerogenes, S.aureus, B.cereus, E.faecium and L.monocytogenes (PubMed:12021776, PubMed:15616305, PubMed:19589339, PubMed:22359618, PubMed:22573326, PubMed:25354318, PubMed:30808760). Confers resistance to intestinal infection by S.typhimurium (PubMed:12660734). Exhibits antimicrobial activity against enteric commensal bacteria such as B.adolescentis, L.acidophilus, B.breve, L.fermentum, B.longum and S.thermophilus (PubMed:25354318). Binds to bacterial membranes and causes membrane disintegration (PubMed:25782105). Induces the secretion of the chemokine IL-8 by intestinal epithelial cells (PubMed:19589339). Binds to B.antracis lef/lethal factor, a major virulence factor from B.anthracis, and neutralizes its enzymatic activity (PubMed:22573326). |
| Cellular Location | Secreted. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle. Note=Stored as propeptide HD5(20-94) in secretory granules of small intestinal Paneth cells and found in the ileum lumen as processed mature peptides, predominantly in the HD5(63-94) form (PubMed:12021776). Peptides HD5(20-94), HD5(23-94) and HD5(29-94) are found within tissues, HD5(20- 94) being the predominant intracellular form. Peptides HD5(56-94) and HD5(63-94) are found in the extracellular milieu, HD5(63-94) being the most abundant form (PubMed:12021776). Secreted into the female genital tract lumen (PubMed:9588893). |
| Tissue Location | Expressed in the gastrointestinal, reproductive, and urinary tracts (at protein level) (PubMed:12021776, PubMed:1429669, PubMed:22359618, PubMed:9588893). Expressed in Paneth cells of the small intestine (at protein level) (PubMed:12021776, PubMed:1429669) Expressed throughout the urothelium of the lower urinary tract and in the collecting tubules of the kidney (at protein level) (PubMed:22359618). Expressed in stratified squamous epithelial cells of the female genital tract epithelia, such as in vagina, ectocervix, endocervix, endometrium, and fallopian tube (at protein level) (PubMed:9588893). Endometrial expression correlates with stages of the menstrual cycle: Expression is low during the early proliferative phase, increased during the mid- to late proliferative phase, peaks during the early secretory phase of the cycle, and decreases during the mid- to late secretory phase (PubMed:9588893) |
