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.

Background
GOLGA5 Antibody: GOLGA5 (Golgi autoantigen, subfamily A, member 5), also known as GOLGA84, RFG5 (RET-fused gene 5 protein) or GOLIM5, is a ubiquitously expressed single-pass type II coiled-coil membrane protein that is involved in maintaining Golgi structure (1). It is localized to the Golgi apparatus and predominantly found on membranes at the cis side of the Golgi stack (1,2). As a mitotic phosphoprotein, GOLGA5 binds to active Rab 1 and associates with CASP (an isoform of CDP) in a golgin-tethering complex that is believed to play a role in intra-Golgi retrograde transport (3,4). Defects in GOLGA5 are a cause of thyroid papillary carcinoma (TPC) (5).
