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 | MAP3K14 (HGNC:6853) |
|---|---|
| Function | Lymphotoxin beta-activated kinase which seems to be exclusively involved in the activation of NF-kappa-B and its transcriptional activity. Phosphorylates CHUK/IKKA, thereby promoting proteolytic processing of NFKB2/P100, which leads to NF-kappa-B activation via the non-canonical pathway (PubMed:25406581, PubMed:29230214). Has an essential role in the non-canonical NF-kappa-B signaling that regulates genes encoding molecules involved in B-cell survival, lymphoid organogenesis, and immune response (PubMed:25406581). Could act in a receptor-selective manner. |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. |
| Tissue Location | Weakly expressed in testis, small intestine, spleen, thymus, peripheral blood leukocytes, prostate, ovary and colon |

Background
NIK Antibody: Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) is a ubiquitous transcription factor and an essential mediator of gene expression during activation of immune and inflammatory responses. NF-κB mediates the expression of a great variety of genes in response to extracellular stimuli including IL-1, TNFα, LPS and mitogens. A serine/threonine protein kinase which mediates NF-κB activation by IL-1, TNFα and CD95 was identified recently and designated NIK (for NF-κB inducing kinase). NIK is an activator of IκB kinase alpha and beta (IKKα and IKKβ). Therefore, NIK is a key molecule in the NF-κB signaling pathway leading to the induction of a variety of gene expression in response to proinflammatory cytokines and bacteria products.
