Description
Antigen:
human β-catenin amino acids 43-62 (APSLSGKGNPEEEDVDTSQV)
·
Host:
rabbit
·
Application(s):
WB and IHC
·
β-Catenin is a multifunctional protein known to be part of the Wnt pathway, playing essential roles in development and carcinogenesis.1,2,3 β-Catenin can act as a regulator of the cell cycle and apoptosis in a variety of different cell systems.4,5 The entire primary amino acid sequence is identical among human, rat, and mouse, indicating critical functions of this protein6,7,8. Cayman Chemical’s β-catenin polyclonal antibody can be used for Western blot and immunohistochemical (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue) analysis of β-catenin on samples of human, murine, rat, porcine and bovine origin. Use of this antibody for other species and applications has not yet been tested.
