Handling

Concentration: 1,0 mg/mL

Buffer: Phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.2., 0.05 % sodium azide

Preservative: Sodium azide

Precaution of Use: WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.

Handling Advice: Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.

Storage: 4 °C/-20 °C

Storage Comment: Store the antibody undiluted at 2-8 °C for one month or (in aliquots) at -20 °C for longer.

Target Details for CTNNB1

Target: CTNNB1 (Catenin (Cadherin-Associated Protein), beta 1, 88kDa (CTNNB1))

Alternative Name: Catenin beta-1

Background: The catenins, alpha, beta and gamma, are proteins which bind to the highly conserved,intracellular cytoplasmic tail of E-cadherin. Together, the catenin/cadherin complexes play an important role mediating cellular adhesion. alpha-catenin was initially described as an E-cadherin associated protein, and since has been shown to associate with other members of the cadherin family, such as N-cadherin and P-cadherin. beta-catenin associates with the cytoplasmic portion of E-cadherin, which is necessary for the function of E-cadherin as an adhesion molecule. beta-catenin has also been found in complexes with the tumor suppressor protein APC. gamma-catenin, also known as plakoglobin, is a protein that binds with alpha-catenin and N-cadherin. It has been shown thatthe transmembrane phosphatase PTPμ associates with catenin/cadherin complexes and may regulate complex signaling.Synonyms: Beta-catenin, CTNNB, CTNNB1
