β-Catenin Antibody Sampler Kit #2951

Western blot analysis of extracts from control HeLa cells (lane 1) or HeLa cells with a targeted mutation in the gene encoding β-Catenin (lane 2) using Phospho-β-Catenin (Ser675) (D2F1) XP® Rabbit mAb (upper), or GAPDH (D16H11) XP® Rabbit mAb #5174 (lower). The change in β-Catenin molecular weight in the mutated HeLa cells confirms the specificity of the antibody for β-Catenin.

Product Information

Product Description

The β-Catenin Antibody Sampler Kit provides an economical means of detecting total β-catenin as well as β-catenin phosphorlylated at various residues. The kit contains enough primary and secondary antibody to perform two Western blots with each antibody.

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).

Both Akt and PKA were shown to phosphorylate β-catenin at Ser552 and Ser675. Phosphorylation at Ser552 and Ser675 induces β-catenin accumulation in the nucleus and increases its transcriptional activity (9-12).
