Function

Key downstream component of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway (PubMed:17524503, PubMed:18077326, PubMed:18086858, PubMed:18957423, PubMed:21262353, PubMed:22155184, PubMed:22647378, PubMed:22699938). In the absence of Wnt, forms a complex with AXIN1, AXIN2, APC, CSNK1A1 and GSK3B that promotes phosphorylation on N-terminal Ser and Thr residues and ubiquitination of CTNNB1 via BTRC and its subsequent degradation by the proteasome (PubMed:17524503, PubMed:18077326, PubMed:18086858, PubMed:18957423, PubMed:21262353, PubMed:22155184, PubMed:22647378, PubMed:22699938). In the presence of Wnt ligand, CTNNB1 is not ubiquitinated and accumulates in the nucleus, where it acts as a coactivator for transcription factors of the TCF/LEF family, leading to activate Wnt responsive genes (PubMed:17524503, PubMed:18077326, PubMed:18086858, PubMed:18957423, PubMed:21262353, PubMed:22155184, PubMed:22647378, PubMed:22699938). Involved in the regulation of cell adhesion, as component of an E-cadherin:catenin adhesion complex (By similarity). Acts as a negative regulator of centrosome cohesion (PubMed:18086858). Involved in the CDK2/PTPN6/CTNNB1/CEACAM1 pathway of insulin internalization (PubMed:21262353). Blocks anoikis of malignant kidney and intestinal epithelial cells and promotes their anchorage-independent growth by down-regulating DAPK2 (PubMed:18957423). Disrupts PML function and PML-NB formation by inhibiting RANBP2-mediated sumoylation of PML (PubMed:22155184). Promotes neurogenesis by maintaining sympathetic neuroblasts within the cell cycle (By similarity). Involved in chondrocyte differentiation via interaction with SOX9: SOX9-binding competes with the binding sites of TCF/LEF within CTNNB1, thereby inhibiting the Wnt signaling (By similarity).

Activity summary

Beta Catenin also known by names such as CTNNB1 or beta-chip is an important protein involved in cell signaling and adhesion. This protein has a molecular weight of around 88 kDa. Beta Catenin is expressed in many cell types and tissues indicating its widespread role in various biological processes. It functions mechanically by mediating the linkage between cadherins and the actin cytoskeleton facilitating cell-cell adhesion. Beta Catenin is also a central part of transcription regulation processes in the nucleus.

Biological function summary

This protein plays roles in both cell adhesion and the regulation of gene expression. Beta Catenin is a critical component of the Wnt signaling pathway where it can form complexes with other proteins to influence gene transcription. In the absence of Wnt signaling beta Catenin levels are low due to its degradation. However when the pathway is active it accumulates in the cytoplasm and eventually translocates to the nucleus where it interacts with TCF/LEF transcription factors to regulate the expression of target genes.

Pathways

Beta Catenin plays a central role in the Wnt signaling pathway and influences cell fate decisions and cellular proliferation. It acts in concert with proteins such as Dishevelled (DVL) and Axin to coordinate these important biological processes. In the absence of Wnt signaling proteins such as APC and GSK-3β are responsible for beta Catenin degradation keeping its cellular levels in check. Beta Catenin’s interaction with transcription factors in the nucleus makes it pivotal in the regulation of cell and tissue homeostasis.

Associated diseases and disorders

Beta Catenin has associations with colorectal cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. Its dysregulation can lead to unchecked cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. Often mutations in the beta Catenin gene (CTNNB1) or components of the Wnt pathway like APC are implicated in the development of these cancers. Its interplay with E-cadherin is important for maintaining tissue architecture and disruptions can lead to invasive cancer phenotypes. Understanding beta Catenin’s role provides insights into therapeutic strategies for these cancers.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-beta Catenin antibody [E247] - BSA and Azide free (ab196204)

    Different expression level of beta Catenin in Human HCTs (hepatocellular carcinoma tissues) and PLTs (para-cancerous liver tissues).

    The HCTs, PLTs were paraffin-embedded and cut into sections with 5 μm-thickness for hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis. Anti-beta Catenin antibody [E247] - ChIP Grade ab32572 was used at a dilution of 1:400. The second antibody was a biotinylated IgG to incubate 40 minutes at 37°C. Finally, the tissue slices were visualized by the 3, 3-diaminobenzidine solution and counterstained with hematoxylin. Substitution of the primary antibody with phosphate-buffered saline was served as a control for IHC.

    The beta Catenin with negative, weak, moderate and strong staining activity was respectively detected in HCTs (E-H) and PLTs (M-P). Section E shown above, for full image please see original paper.

    This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (Anti-beta Catenin antibody [E247] - ChIP Grade ab32572).

    This data was developed using the same antibody in a different buffer formulation (Anti-beta Catenin antibody [E247] - ChIP Grade ab32572).

    Chromatin was prepared from HCT 116 cells according to the Abcam Dual-X-ChIP protocol*. Cells were fixed with 1.5 mM EGS for 30 mins and then formaldehyde for 10 min.

    The ChIP was performed with 25 μg of chromatin, 5 μg of Anti-beta Catenin antibody [E247] - ChIP Grade ab32572 (red), or 5 μg of rabbit normal IgG Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control ab172730 (gray) and 20 μl of Protein A/G sepharose beads. The immunoprecipitated DNA was quantified by real time PCR (Taqman approach for active and inactive loci, Sybr green approach for heterochromatic loci)
