It is not recommended to aliquot this antibody.
This antibody is not cross-reactive with other -alpha-catenin family members.
The catenins (alpha, beta, and gamma) are cytoplasmic proteins found in varying abundance in many developing and adult tissues. Catenins bind directly or indirectly to the conserved cytoplasmic tail domain of the cell adhesion cadherins. The association of catenins to cadherins produces a complex, which is linked to the actin filament network. Catenins/cadherin complexes play an important role in mediating cell adhesion, transduction of cell-cell contact positional signals to the cell interior, and may play a crucial role in cell differentiation. Alpha-Catenin (CAP102, 102 kDa), originally described as an E-cadherin associated protein, has been shown to associate with other members of the cadherin family members, N-cadherin and P-cadherin.
