    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    Beta-Catenin (15B8) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total beta-catenin protein. This antibody detects an approximately 75 kDa protein of unknown identity in some cell lines.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse, Rat

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a recombinant chicken beta-catenin protein.

    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).
