CTNNB1; CTNNB1; CTNNB; MRD19; armadillo; CTNNB
uniprot entry name : 
CTNB1_HUMAN
specificity : 
This item recognises catenin-beta, a cytosolic protein which forms complexes with cadherins and with axin (part of the Wnt signalling pathway). Catenins are present in both developing and adult tissues.
form : 
Serum. Serum - liquid
storage stability : 
Store at -20 degree C only. Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.  Shelf Life: 18 months from date of despatch.
tested application : 
Immunohistology Frozen, ELISA (EIA), Immunoblotting (IB), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Immunohistology Paraffin*

ncbi summary : 
The protein encoded by this gene is part of a complex of proteins that constitute adherens junctions (AJs). AJs are necessary for the creation and maintenance of epithelial cell layers by regulating cell growth and adhesion between cells. The encoded protein also anchors the actin cytoskeleton and may be responsible for transmitting the contact inhibition signal that causes cells to stop dividing once the epithelial sheet is complete. Finally, this protein binds to the product of the APC gene, which is mutated in adenomatous polyposis of the colon. Mutations in this gene are a cause of colorectal cancer (CRC), pilomatrixoma (PTR), medulloblastoma (MDB), and ovarian cancer. Three transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
