Anti-CTTNBL1 CTNNBL1 Antibody

The Beta-catenin-like protein 1 (CTNNBL1) contains an acidic domain, a putative bipartite nuclear localization signal, a nuclear export signal, a leucine-isoleucine zipper, and phosphorylation motifs, as well as Armadillo/beta-catenin-like repeats. Transient expression of CTNNBL1 resulted in translocation to the nucleus and apoptosis, suggesting it may be involved in the apoptotic pathway. CTNNBL1 interacts with the Prp19 complex of the spliceosome and the Ig class switching enzyme activation-induced deaminase (AID) and had been suggested to play a role in antibody-diversification and class switching, but recent studies have shown CTNNBL1 to be dispensable for Ig class switch recombination. Other studies have identified CTTNBL1 as a novel gene for obesity.

CTNNBL1 antibody is predicted to not cross-react with other catenin family members. At least four isoforms of CTNNBL1 are known to exist; this antibody will detect all but isoform b.

CTTNBL1 antibody was raised against a 20 amino acid synthetic peptide near the carboxy terminus of human CTTNBL1. The immunogen is located within the last 50 amino acids of CTTNBL1.

Component of the PRP19-CDC5L complex that forms an integral part of the spliceosome and is required for activating pre-mRNA splicing. Participates in AID/AICDA-mediated Ig class switching recombination (CSR) . May induce apoptosis.

CTTNBL1 antibody can be stored at 4°C for three months and -20°C, stable for up to one year. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
