Product Specifications

Immunogen

Catenin alpha 1 synthetic peptide (coupled to KLH) corresponding to amino acid residues from the N-terminal region of human Catenin alpha 1. This peptide sequence is highly conserved in rat and mouse Catenin alpha 1, and has some homology to Catenin alpha 2 or Catenin alpha 3. [UniProt# P35221]

Specificity

The antibody detects a 102 kDa protein corresponding to the molecular mass of Catenin alpha 1 on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of rat PC12 and mouse SYF cells.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Host

Rabbit

Isotype

IgG

Theoretical MW

102 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Description

Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.

Background: Catenin alpha 1

Cadherin and catenin compose cell adhesion complex and are indispensable for tight cell-cell adhesion. Dysfunction of this adhesion complex causes dissociation of cancer cells from primary tumor nodules, thus possibly contributing to cancer invasion and metastasis (1). At least three proteins (alpha, beta, and gamma catenin) comprise the cytoplasmic domain of the cadherin cell-cell adhesion complex. Data, with the reported structure of other catenin genes, suggest that vinculin and alpha-catenin generate a superfamily of proteins mediating membrane-cytoskeletal associations (2). Presenilin-1 (PS1) overexpression in human kidney cells enhances cell-cell adhesion and data show that PS1 incorporates into the cadherin/catenin adhesion system and regulates cell-cell adhesion. PS1 concentrates at intercellular contacts in epithelial tissue; in brain, it forms complexes with both E- and N-cadherin and concentrates at synaptic adhesions (3).
