β-Catenin (phospho Thr41/Ser45)
Background
β-catenin (Catenin beta-1) belongs to the cadherin-associated protein family and mediates cell-cell adhesion as well as Wnt signal transduction. Thr41/Ser45 are conserved N-terminal phosphorylation sites critical for the degradation cascade of β-catenin. Under Wnt-off status, CK1α initiates phosphorylation at Ser45, followed by sequential phosphorylation of Thr41, Ser33 and Ser37 catalyzed by GSK-3β. Fully phosphorylated β-catenin is recognized by β-TrCP ubiquitin ligase and subjected to ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation to repress downstream transcription. Wnt stimulation inhibits this phosphorylation cascade, leading to β-catenin accumulation and nuclear translocation to activate target genes governing stemness, epithelial-mesenchymal transition and tumor metastasis. Thr41/Ser45 phosphorylation level reflects destruction complex activity and is routinely used to evaluate Wnt pathway status.
