False colour image of Western blot : Anti-beta Catenin antibody [EP690Y] staining at 1/500 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab68183 was shown to bind specifically to beta Catenin. A band was observed at 85 kDa in wild-type HepG2 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in CTNNB1 knockout cell line. To generate this image, wild-type and CTNNB1 knockout HepG2 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) at 1/20000 dilution.

Supplementary information

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.

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.

Target data

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). Acts as a positive regulator of odontoblast differentiation during mesenchymal tooth germ formation, via promoting the transcription of differentiation factors such as LEF1, BMP2 and BMP4 (By similarity). Activity is repressed in a MSX1-mediated manner at the bell stage of mesenchymal tooth germ formation which prevents premature differentiation of odontoblasts (By similarity).
