    Source / Purification

    Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic acetylated peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Lys49 of human β-catenin. Antibodies were purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

    Background

    β-catenin is a key downstream effector in the Wnt signaling pathway (1). It is implicated in two major biological processes in vertebrates: early embryonic development (2) and tumorigenesis (3). CK1 phosphorylates β-catenin at Ser45. This phosphorylation event primes β-catenin for subsequent phosphorylation by GSK-3β (4-6). GSK-3β destabilizes β-catenin by phosphorylating it at Ser33, Ser37, and Thr41 (7). Mutations at these sites result in the stabilization of β-catenin protein levels and have been found in many tumor cell lines (8).

    Lys49 lies in a region that contains several Ser/Thr residues whose phosphorylation status regulates the stability of β-catenin and is one of few residues frequently mutated in thyroid anaplastic carcinoma (9). CBP (CREB-binding protein) binds and acetylates β-catenin at Lys49 (10, 11).
