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
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an endogenously produced intracellular enzyme present in almost every cell in the body (2). It works by catalyzing the dismutation of the superoxide radical O2ˉ to O2 and H2O2, which are then metabolized to H2O and O2 by catalase and glutathione peroxidase (1,4). In general, SODs play a major role in antioxidant defense mechanisms (3). There are two main types of SOD in mammalian cells. One form (SOD1) contains Cu and Zn ions as a homodimer and exists in the cytoplasm. The two subunits of 16 kDa each are linked by two cysteines forming an intra-subunit disulphide bridge (2). Misfolding of SOD1 has been implicated in Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Therefore conformation specific antibodies such as Anti-SOD1 (UbetaB), which targets an unfolded region of the beta barrel of SOD1, are useful for determining the conformation of SOD1 in affected tissues (5). This antibody can be used in conjunction with Anti-SOD1 (EDI) (SPC-206D) which detects an exposed dimer interface (EDI) of SOD1.
