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.

| Precautions | SAE2 Antibody is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
| Name | UBA2 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | SAE2, UBLE1B |
| Function | The heterodimer acts as an E1 ligase for SUMO1, SUMO2, SUMO3, and probably SUMO4. It mediates ATP-dependent activation of SUMO proteins followed by formation of a thioester bond between a SUMO protein and a conserved active site cysteine residue on UBA2/SAE2. |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Shuttles between the cytoplasm and the nucleus, sumoylation is required either for nuclear translocation or nuclear retention |

Background
SAE2 Antibody: Small ubiquitin-like modifiers (SUMOs) are a family of small, related proteins (SUMO-1/2/3/4) that can be enzymatically attached to a target protein by a post-translational modification process termed sumoylation, a major regulator of protein function in cellular processes such as nuclear transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis and protein stability. This sumoylation is effected by the heterodimeric enzyme SAE1/SAE2 and the SUMO-1-conjugating enzyme Ubch9. The sumoylation pathway mediated by SAE1/SAE2 is distinct from other ubiquitin-like protein (Ubl) pathways.
