| Introduction | β-Catenin is a key downstream effector in the Wnt signaling pathway. It is implicated in two major biological processes in vertebrates: early embryonic development and tumorigenesis. CK1 phosphorylates β-Catenin at Ser45. This phosphorylation event primes β-Catenin for subsequent phosphorylation by GSK-3β. GSK-3β destabilizes β-catenin by phosphorylating it at Ser33, Ser37, and Thr41. Mutations at these sites result in the stabilization of β-Catenin protein levels and have been found in many tumor cell lines.Lys49 lies in a region that contains several Ser/Thr residues whose phosphorylation status regulates the stability of β-catenin and is one of few residues frequently mutated in thyroid anaplastic carcinoma. CBP (CREB-binding protein) binds and acetylates β-catenin at Lys49. |
