B-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 B-catenin on Ser45.
This phosphorylation event primes B-catenin for subsequent phosphorylation by GSK-3 (4-6).
GSK-3B destabilizes B-catenin by phosphorylating it at Ser33, Ser37 and Thr41 (7).
Mutations in these phosphorylation sites, which result in the stabilization of B-catenin protein levels, have been found in many tumor cell lines (8).
Applications:Suitable for use in Western Blot.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:Western Blot: 1:1000.
Incubate membrane with diluted antibody in TBS, 5% BSA, 0.1% Tween-20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
