NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the claudin family. Claudins are integral membrane proteins and components of tight junction strands. Tight junction strands serve as a physical barrier to prevent solutes and water from passing freely through the paracellular space between epithelial or endothelial cell sheets, and also play critical roles in maintaining cell polarity and signal transductions. The protein encoded by this gene is a low-affinity receptor for clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (CPE) produced by the bacterium Clostridium perfringens, and the interaction with CPE results in increased membrane permeability by forming small pores in plasma membrane. This protein is highly overexpressed in uterine carcinosarcoma. This protein is also predominantly present in brain endothelial cells, where it plays a specific role in the establishment and maintenance of blood brain barrier tight junction morphology.

Uniprot Description
Claudin-3: Plays a major role in tight junction-specific obliteration of the intercellular space, through calcium- independent cell-adhesion activity. CLDN3 is located in the Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) critical region. WBS results from a hemizygous deletion of several genes on chromosome 7q11.23, thought to arise as a consequence of unequal crossing over between highly homologous low-copy repeat sequences flanking the deleted region. Belongs to the claudin family.

Product Notes
The Mouse Cldn3 cldn3 (Catalog #AAA2884546) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2884546 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse Cldn3. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Claudin-3, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
