LC3B: From Autophagy to Cancer

LC3B is subunit component of the LC3 autophagy biomarker associated with microtubule-associated proteins MAP1A and MAP1B and one of the best characterized markers to date. In resting state, it is cytosolic, but upon activation, is lapidated and becomes embedded in the autophagosomal membrane.

CD34 Serves as an Important Marker in Disease Research

CD34 is a cell surface glycoprotein that aids cells in cell-cell adhesion. It is expressed on endothelial cells where it is known to bind L-selectin and may aid in migration of T-cells.

VEGF Receptor 1 Infographic

VEGF Receptor 1 plays a critical role in vasculogenesis, angiogenesis, cell migration, cell survival, chemotaxis and cancer cell invasion. Learn more about VEGF Receptor 1 in the infographic below.

Novus Biologicals offers various VEGF Receptor 1 reagents for your research needs including:

53BP1, DNA Damage Response and Tumor Suppression

53BP1 (p53 binding protein 1) was originally thought to be a p53 transcriptional enhancing partner, but now has been shown to be an ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) substrate. It is a late DNA damage response (DDR) marker, appearing in the telophase/cytokinesis phase in mitotic mammalian cells (1).

Hsp70

70-kDa Heat Shock Protein (Hsp70) is an abundant protein cofactor commonly known as a molecular chaperone. Found in most eukaryotes, Hsp genes are members of a heat-inducible multigene family. These proteins are found in most cellular compartments of eukaryotes - everything from nuclei, mitochondria, chloroplasts, to endoplasmic reticulum and cytosol.

PIEZO1: A Mechanosensitive Ion Channel Protein

PIEZO1, and its close homologue PIEZO2, are mechanosensitive ion channel proteins. Mechanosensitive ion channels couple protein conformation to the mechanics of the surrounding membrane, and switch between a closed state and an open state in response to changes in membrane tension, thickness, or curvature. Cells use this information to ensure viability under conditions of osmotic stress or membrane deformation (1).

Survivin: As long as I know how to live I know I will

Survivin is an anti-apoptotic protein from a large family with related members such as X-linked IAP, cIAP1 and cIAP2, IAP-like protein-2, melanoma IAP, Livin, and NAIP. Survivin regulates fundamental physiological events including the cell cycle, fetal development, and cell migration.

HIF Prolyl Hydroxylase 1: A Key Regulator of HIF1A Levels

Hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs) are transcription factors that regulate the cellular response to decreases in oxygen levels. Under conditions of hypoxia HIFs activate the transcription of a diverse range of genes, resulting in increased oxygen delivery to the cell or metabolic adaptation.

GPR49/LGR5: Stem Cells and the WNT Signaling Pathway

GPR49/LGR5 (G protein-coupled receptor 49/leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 5) is also known by the names FEX, GPR67, GRP49, HG38, and MGC117008). It is an orphan receptor and structurally related to members of the mammalian large transmembrane glycoprotein hormone receptor family (FSH-R, TSH-R, and LH-R).

TRF2: Telomere Maintenance and Protection

TRF2 (telomeric repeat-binding factor 2) is a homodimeric protein that binds the double-stranded 5'-TTAGGG-3' repeat in telomeres.
