Beta-Catenin, Human, mAb 9F2
Beta-catenin belongs together with alpha- and gamma-catenin to the catenin family. Catenins mediates cell-cell adhesion by interaction with cadherins. Beta-catenin is highly homologous to gamma-catenin (plakoglobin) although its function differs from that of plakoglobin. Whereas plakoglobin has been found to suppress tumorigenicity, beta-catenin potentiates hyperproliferation and tumor formation. In the nucleus beta-catenin it complexes with transcription factors and thus regulates the expression of specific genes. By its dual role, i.e. a structural role in cell-cell junctions and a regulatory role in the nucleus, beta-catenin can transduce changes in cell adhesion and junction formation to control transmembrane signalling and gene expression.

- Navigating the pitfalls in complement analysisOur colleague Erik Toonen shared his experience on how to analyze complement at the Complement-based Drug Development Summit in Boston in September 11-13th, 2023. He showed valuable insights on analyzing complements. For accurate complement analysis, it is important that not only the correct technique is used but also that pre-analytical sample handling is performed in… Read more: Navigating the pitfalls in complement analysis
- NEW Human C3d ELISAWe are happy to introduce our new ELISA (cat.# HK3017) designed to detect human C3d. What sets this assay apart is its utilization of a distinctive neo-epitope capture antibody that selectively targets a specific C3d region of the alpha chain, which is not available in other C3 variants. This way it specifically distinguishes C3d from native C3… Read more: NEW Human C3d ELISA
