Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse anti-p120 Catenin (pS288)
19418-overlay.png

Analysis of p120 Catenin (pS288) in human epithelioid carcinoma.  After serum starvation overnight, Hela S3 cells (ATCC CCL 2.2) were either stimulated with 50 nM calyculin A (shaded histogram) for 30 minutes at 37°C or unstimulated (open histogram).  The cells were fixed (BD Cytofix™ buffer, Cat. No. 554655) for 10 minutes at 37°C, then permeabilized (BD Phosflow™ Perm Buffer III, Cat. No. 558050) on ice for at least 30 minutes, and then stained with Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse anti-p120 Catenin (pS288, Cat. No. 558561).  Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCalibur™ flow cytometry system.

Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 647 under optimum conditions, and unreacted Alexa Fluor® 647 was removed.

Product Notices

  1. This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
  2. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
  3. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
  4. Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for allophycocyanin (APC).
  5. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  6. The Alexa Fluor®, Pacific Blue™, and Cascade Blue® dye antibody conjugates in this product are sold under license from Molecular Probes, Inc. for research use only, excluding use in combination with microarrays, or as analyte specific reagents. The Alexa Fluor® dyes (except for Alexa Fluor® 430), Pacific Blue™ dye, and Cascade Blue® dye are covered by pending and issued patents.

17/catenin

The membrane associated protein pp120 Src substrate (p120 catenin, p120cas) was identified as a tyrosine kinase substrate that is phosphorylated in Src-transformed cells.  It shares structural similarity with the Drosophila  Armadillo protein and the vertebrate β-catenin and γ-catenin proteins in its 42-amino acid Arm domain.  p120 catenin is localized to the E-Cadherin/catenin cell adhesion complex.  Like β- and γ-catenin, p120 catenin directly associates with the cytoplasmic C-terminus of E-Cadherin via its Arm domain.  It exists as four isoforms that range in size from 90 to 115 kDa.  Expression of these isoforms is heterogeneous in human carcinomas, suggesting that altered expression contributes to malignancy.  Phosphorylation of multiple serine (S252, S268, S288, and S879), and threonine (T310 and T916) residues in p120 catenin may regulate its activity.  The S879 residue is phosphorylated after PKC activation, while the S268 site is dephosphorylated after PKC activation.  The latter residue is phosphorylated in vitro by p160 Rock.  S252 and T310 residues are phosphorylated in vitro by GSK3b.  Thus, p120 catenin function may be regulated in a complex manner through both serine and threonine phosphorylation.

The 17/catenin monoclonal antibody recognizes the phosphorylated S288 in the regulatory domain of p120 catenin.

Alexa Fluor™ 647
Alexa Fluor™ 647 Dye is part of the BD red family of dyes. This is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 653-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 669-nm. Alexa Fluor™ 647 is designed to be excited by the Red laser (627-640 nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 670-nm (e.g., a 660/20 nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
