{"product_id":"cst-6238s","title":"CST,  6238S, SignalSilenceÂ® beta-Catenin siRNA II","description":"siRNA for studying Catenin-beta in the research area.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nCST recommends transfection with 100 nM SignalSilence Â® beta-Catenin siRNA II 48 to 72 hours prior to cell lysis. For transfection procedure, follow protocol provided by the transfection reagent manufacturer. Please feel free to contact CST with any questions on use. Each vial contains the equivalent of 100 transfections, which corresponds to a final siRNA concentration of 100 nM per transfection in a 24-well plate with a total volume of 300 Î¼l per well.\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nSignalSilence Â® siRNA is supplied in RNAse-free water. Aliquot and store at -20ÂºC.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nÎ²-catenin is a key downstream effector in the Wnt signaling pathway (1). It is implicated in two major biological processes in vertebrates: early embryonic development (2) and tumorigenesis (3). CK1 phosphorylates Î²-catenin at Ser45. This phosphorylation event primes Î²-catenin for subsequent phosphorylation by GSK-3Î² (4-6). GSK-3Î² destabilizes Î²-catenin by phosphorylating it at Ser33, Ser37, and Thr41 (7). Mutations at these sites result in the stabilization of Î²-catenin protein levels and have been found in many tumor cell lines (8).\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800788357289,"sku":"6238S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-6238s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
