Anti β catenin antibody

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

The Anti-β-catenin antibody is a laboratory reagent used in Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and other research applications. It specifically recognizes and binds to the β-catenin protein, which is a key component of the Wnt signaling pathway and plays a role in cell-cell adhesion and gene transcription. The antibody can be used to detect and quantify the expression of β-catenin in various biological samples.

LINC01278 Immunoprecipitation Assay

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cells were fixed and crosslinked in 1% formaldehyde, and lysed using RIPA buffer supplemented with protease-inhibitor cocktail and RNase inhibitor. The cell lysates were incubated with magnetic beads conjugated with anti-β-catenin antibody (Millipore). Mouse IgG (Millipore) was used as the negative control. The immunoprecipitated RNA was extracted from the eluate, and the enrichment of LINC01278 or control ACTB was analyzed by quantitative RT-PCR.

Embryo Processing for Immunohistochemistry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To control for technical variation, control and transgenic embryos were processed in parallel, using identical procedures and reagents in a 24-well plate. Probe details are available in supplementary material Table S3. For immunohistochemistry, embryos were fixed in 2% (β-catenin) or 4% (dpErk) paraformaldehyde in 1×PBS at 4°C, washed in PBST (PBS with 0.1% Tween 20) and dehydrated overnight in methanol at -20°C. After progressive rehydration in PBST they were deyolked (β-catenin) and blocked in 10% sheep serum, 10 mg/ml BSA in PBS with 0.5% Triton X-100 (β-catenin) or 0.1% Tween 20 (dpErk). Anti-β-catenin antibody (Sigma, clone 15B8) was diluted 1/300 and goat anti-mouse IgG-coupled Alexa594 (Molecular Probes) and Hoechst 34222 were diluted 1/1000. Mouse monoclonal anti-dpErk [which recognizes Erk1/2 (Mapk3/1) in their double-phosphorylated state; gift of Ben Shilo, Weizmann Institute, Israel] was diluted 1/2000.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Immunohistochemistry were performed on 3 µm thick paraffin-embedded sections of the small intestinal tumors with anti-β-catenin antibody. The sections were deparaffinized in xylen and re-hydrated through graduated ethanol at room temperature. Tissue sections were soaked in 10 mM citrate buffer (pH6.0) and then subjected to antigen retrieval by microwaving for 20 minutes before the primary antibodey reaction. After treatment with 3% hydrogen peroxide for 5 minutes and 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH7.5) containing 1% BSA for 15 minutes, a 1:4000 diluted rabbit polyclonal anti-β-catenin antibody (Sigma) was applied to the sections, and incubated either at room temperature for 1 hr or at 4°C overnight. The detections were carried out with avidin-biotin-enzyme complex (ABC) method using LSAB+ System-HRP (DAKO) according to the manufacturer's protocol. The tumors with more than 5% of nuclear stained cells were counted for positive.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
