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
| Primary Accession | Q8N0X7 |
|---|---|
| Clone Names | 90805108 |
| Gene ID | 23111 |

| Other Names | Spartin, Spastic paraplegia 20 protein, Trans-activated by hepatitis C virus core protein 1, SPG20, KIAA0610, TAHCCP1 |
| Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP9040a was selected from the N-term region of human SPG20. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
| Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
| Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
| Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
| Name | SPART (HGNC:18514) |
|---|---|
| Function | Lipophagy receptor that plays an important role in lipid droplet (LD) turnover in motor neurons (PubMed:37443287). Localizes to LDs and interacts with components of the autophagy machinery, such as MAP1LC3A/C proteins to deliver LDs to autophagosomes for degradation via lipophagy (PubMed:37443287). Lipid transfer protein required for lipid droplet degradation, including by lipophagy (PubMed:38190532). Can bind and transfer all lipid species found in lipid droplets, from phospholipids to triglycerides and sterol esters but the direction of lipid transfer by spartin and its cargos are unknown (PubMed:38190532). May be implicated in endosomal trafficking, or microtubule dynamics, or both. Participates in cytokinesis (PubMed:20719964). |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Midbody. Lipid droplet Note=Transiently associated with endosomes (PubMed:19580544) Colocalized with IST1 to the ends of Flemming bodies during cytokinesis (PubMed:20719964). |
| Tissue Location | Ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels of expression detected in adipose tissue |

Background
SPG20 is a protein containing a MIT (Microtubule Interacting and Trafficking molecule) domain, and is implicated in regulating endosomal trafficking and mitochondria function. The protein localizes to mitochondria and partially co-localizes with microtubules. Stimulation with epidermal growth factor (EGF) results in protein translocation to the plasma membrane, and the protein functions in the degradation and intracellular trafficking of EGF receptor.
