Background

α, β and γ-catenin are intracellular proteins that link cadherins to the actin cytosceleton. Cadherins are cell-surface proteins that are involved in cell-cell adhesion.
α-N-catenin is expressed mainly in the nervous system. It is a cytoplasmic protein that interacts with N-cadherin and functions in cell-cell adhesion. It is a regulator for the stability of synaptic contacts and is important for cerebellar and hippocampal lamination. There are two isoforms which are differentially expressed during development.
The major part of β-catenin localizes to the cell membrane and is part of E-cadherin/catenin adhesion complexes.

Cat. No. 281 004	100 µl antiserum, lyophilized. For reconstitution add 100 µl H₂O, then aliquot and store at -20°C until use. Antibodies should be stored at +4°C when still lyophilized. Do not freeze!
Applications	WB: 1 : 1000 (AP staining) gallery IP: not tested yet ICC: 1 : 1000 gallery IHC: 1 : 500 up to 1 : 1000 gallery IHC-P: not tested yet Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section. Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section. Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section. Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.
