Unknown

Western blot - Anti-gamma Catenin (phospho Y550) antibody (AB29041)

Western blot analysis of gamma-Catenin immunoprecipitated from lysates prepared from A431 cells treated with pervanadate. The immunoprecipitation was performed using mouse monoclonal anti-gamma-Catenin. The blots were probed with anti-phospho-gamma-Catenin (Tyr-550) antibody. The immunoprecipitated gamma-Catenin was untreated (lane 1) or treated with alkaline phosphatase (lane 2) then probed with the antibody. In addition, the anti-phospho-gamma-Catenin (Tyr-550) was used in the presence of phospho-gamma-Catenin (Tyr-550) peptide (lane 3) or phospho-gamma-Catenin (Tyr-644) peptide (lane 4).

Supplementary information

Gamma Catenin also known as Junction Plakoglobin (JUP) is a protein with a molecular mass of approximately 82 kDa. It plays an important role in cell adhesion mechanisms. This protein is expressed widely in various tissue types prominently in epithelial tissues. Gamma Catenin contributes significantly to the structure of adherens junctions and desmosomes physically connecting cells to one another and stabilizing those connections within tissues.
Biological function summary

Gamma Catenin is an integral component of the armadillo family of proteins and part of desmosomal and adherens junction complexes. It plays an essential role in maintaining the integrity and mechanical strength of tissues. Through interacting with other proteins in these complexes gamma Catenin facilitates cell signaling and communication. It associates with cadherins and catenins including plakophilin and β-catenin to ensure proper cell-cell adhesion and signaling across the cell membrane.

Pathways

Gamma Catenin is involved in the Wnt signaling pathway an important route governing cellular processes such as proliferation differentiation and migration. Gamma Catenin interacts with β-catenin in this pathway influencing transcriptional regulation in the nucleus. It also plays roles in the cadherin-mediated cell adhesion pathway working alongside other proteins like E-cadherin to modulate cell behavior. These pathways highlight its importance in cellular architecture and signaling.

Alterations in gamma Catenin expression or function relate to conditions such as heart diseases specifically arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy and cancer particularly affecting epithelial tissues. In these conditions abnormal gamma Catenin interactions with other junction proteins like desmoplakin and plakophilin contribute to disease progression. These disruptions suggest its potential as a therapeutic target providing insight into disease mechanisms and opportunities for intervention.

Target data

Common junctional plaque protein. The membrane-associated plaques are architectural elements in an important strategic position to influence the arrangement and function of both the cytoskeleton and the cells within the tissue. The presence of plakoglobin in both the desmosomes and in the intermediate junctions suggests that it plays a central role in the structure and function of submembranous plaques. Acts as a substrate for VE-PTP and is required by it to stimulate VE-cadherin function in endothelial cells. Can replace beta-catenin in E-cadherin/catenin adhesion complexes which are proposed to couple cadherins to the actin cytoskeleton (By similarity).
