Biological background
Biological context: Transcriptional regulator that acts as an activator. Promotes beta-catenin transcriptional activity. Plays a role in tumorigenesis. Enhances the neoplastic transforming activity of CTNNB1.
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Nucleus., tissue context: Expressed in breast, ductal and invasive ductal carcinomas of the breast, sporadic colorectal adenomas and carcinomas (at protein level). Expressed in fetal brain. Expressed in lung, amygdala, eye, prostate, pancreatic and prostate cancers, head and neck tumors and embryonal tumor..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare BCL9L levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of BCL9L in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Immunofluorescence / ICC: Assess subcellular localization patterns and co-localization with compartment markers in cultured cells.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify BCL9L-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
Additional product notes (from provided fields)
- Specificity: No cross reactivity with other proteins.
- Background: B-cell CLL/lymphoma 9 like is a protein that in humans is encoded by the BCL9L gene. It is mapped to 11q23.3. Bcl-9 (B-cell lymphoma 9; also Protein legless homolog) is a transcriptional regulator that belongs to the Bcl-9 family of proteins. It is expressed in multiple tissues and serves to recruit Pygopus to the Wnt-pathway beta -catenin-TCF complex in the nucleus. Bcl-9 and Bcl-9-2 are considered evolutionary duplicates of Legless that perform the same task with different regulation. Human Bcl-9 is 1426 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one phosphothreonine and three phosphoserine sites that have been identified so far, two poly-Pro regions (aa 514-517 and 970-973), and one poly-Ala segment (aa 900-903). There is one potential alternate start site at Met27, and a variant isoform exists that shows a four aa substitution for aa 13911426. Over aa 1009-1328, human Bcl-9 is 96% aa identical to mouse Bcl-9.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Nucleus.
- Tissue details: Expressed in breast, ductal and invasive ductal carcinomas of the breast, sporadic colorectal adenomas and carcinomas (at protein level). Expressed in fetal brain. Expressed in lung, amygdala, eye, prostate, pancreatic and prostate cancers, head and neck tumors and embryonal tumor.
