Function
Associates with the cytoplasmic domain of a variety of cadherins. The association of catenins to cadherins produces a complex which is linked to the actin filament network, and which seems to be of primary importance for cadherins cell-adhesion properties. Can associate with both E- and N-cadherins. Originally believed to be a stable component of E-cadherin/catenin adhesion complexes and to mediate the linkage of cadherins to the actin cytoskeleton at adherens junctions. In contrast, cortical actin was found to be much more dynamic than E-cadherin/catenin complexes and CTNNA1 was shown not to bind to F-actin when assembled in the complex suggesting a different linkage between actin and adherens junctions components. The homodimeric form may regulate actin filament assembly and inhibit actin branching by competing with the Arp2/3 complex for binding to actin filaments. May play a crucial role in cell differentiation. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed ubiquitously in normal tissues. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the vinculin/alpha-catenin family. -

Cellular localization

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-CTNNA1 antibody [EP1793Y] (ab51032)Paraffin-embedded rat stomach tissue stained for CTNNA1 with ab51032 at a 1/100 dilution in immunohistochemical analysis. Rabbit specific IHC polymer detection kit HRP/DAB (ab209101) was used as a secondary antibody and Hematoxylin used as a counterstain. Heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris-EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution 2) was performed for 20 minutes.
Positive staining was seen on rat stomach.
The section was incubated with ab51032 for 30 minutes at room temperature.
The immunostaining staining was performed on a Leica Biosystems BOND® RX instrument.

Western blot - Anti-CTNNA1 antibody [EP1793Y] (ab51032)Lane 1: Wild-type HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 2: CTNNA1 HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 3: HeLa whole cell lysate (20 µg)

ab51032 was shown to recognize CTNNA1 in wild-type cells as signal was lost at the expected MW in CTNNA1 knockout cells. Additional cross-reactive bands were observed in the wild-type and knockout cells. Wild-type and CTNNA1 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Ab51032 and ab9484 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/50000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.
