• 

  WB analysis using 28778-1-AP

  Untreated and Forskolin treated cells were subjected to SDS PAGE followed by western blot with 28778-1-AP (Phospho-Beta Catenin (Ser552) antibody) at dilution of 1:2000 incubated at room temperature for 1.5 hours. The membrane was stripped and re-blotted with GAPDH (60004-1-Ig) antibody as loading control.

Background Information

β-Catenin, also known as CTNNB1, is an evolutionarily conserved, multifunctional intracellular protein. β-Catenin is a 92-kDa protein, originally identified in cell adherens junctions (AJs) where it functions to bridge the cytoplasmic domain of cadherins to a-catenin and the actin cytoskeleton. Besides its essential role in the AJs, β-catenin is also a key downstream component of the canonical Wnt pathway that plays diverse and critical roles in embryonic development and adult tissue homeostasis. The Wnt/β-catenin pathway is also involved in the activation of other intracellular messengers such as calcium fluxes, JNK, and SRC kinases. Deregulation of β-catenin activity is associated with multiple diseases including cancers(PMID: 22617422, PMID: 18334222). Both AMPK and AKT phosphorylates β-catenin at Ser 552. The phosphorylation of β-catenin at Ser552 can stabilize β-catenin, enhance its nuclear accumulation and increase its transcriptional activity(PMID: 2865606, PMID: 20361929).
