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 | Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development. PcG PRC1 complex acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones; it mediates monoubiquitination of histone H2A 'Lys-119', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility. |
| Cellular Location | Nucleus |

Background
Polycomb group (PcG) proteins assemble into multimeric protein complexes, which are involved in maintaining the transcriptional repressive state of genes throughout development (1). PHC3 (Polyhomeotic-like protein 3), also known as Early development regulatory protein 3, is a 983 amino acid nuclear protein that is a component of the PcG multiprotein PRC1 complex (2). PRC1 complex acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones. PHC3 contains 1 FCS-type zinc finger and SAM (sterile alpha motif) domain (2-3). PHC 3 has been regarded as a candidate tumor suppressor of osteosarcoma (4).
