Mouse anti alphaT- Catenin

892_24D2S is suitable for immunocytochemistry on acetone fixed cells, immunohistochemistry on frozen and paraffin embedded tissue sections, immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting. Optimal antibody dilution should be determined by titration; recommended range is 1:25 ? 1:50 for immunohistochemistry with avidin-biotinylated Horseradish peroxidase complex (ABC) as detection reagent, and 1:100 ? 1:1000 for immunoblotting applications.

Catenins are proteins that connect cadherin/?-Catenin cell adhesion complexes to the actin cytoskeleton. Although originally discovered in testis, ?T-Catenin is expressed in other tissues, the highest levels being observed in heart. Immunohistochemical analysis showed Human ?T-Catenin localization at intercalated discs of cardiomyocytes and in peritubular myoid cells of testis. It is proven that ?T-Catenin can functionally restore cell-cell adhesion in colon cancer cells lacking ?-Catenins. This indiCates that this protein is involved in the formation of specific cell-cell contacts in specific types of muscle cells. The encoded protein has about the same predicted size (100 kDa) as other ?-Catenins to which it shows an overall amino acid identity of 57%. In cells transfected with ?T-Catenin cDNA, interaction with ?-Catenin was demonstRated by co-immunoprecipitation. The 892_24D2S antibody anti ?T-Catenin does not show any cross reaction with ?E-Catenin or ?N-Catenin in western blot analysis.

892_24D2S is a Mouse monoclonal IgG2a antibody derived by fusion of SP2/0-Ag14 Mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells from a C57Bl/6 Mouse immunized with a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 164-177 of the Human ?T-Catenin protein including an additional N-terminal cysteine (CVANKSDLQKTYQKL) coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin.

892_24D2S reacts with an epitope located between residues 164-177 of the Human ?T-Catenin protein.
