Related Product Information for anti-OCLN antibody
Description: May play a role in the formation and regulation of the tight junction (TJ) paracellular permeability barrier. It is able to induce adhesion when expressed in cells lacking tight junctions.

Post Translational Modifications: Dephosphorylated by PTPRJ. The tyrosine phosphorylation on Tyr-398 and Tyr-402 reduces its ability to interact with TJP1. Phosphorylation at Ser-490 also attenuates the interaction with TJP1.

Subunit Structure: Interacts with TJP1/ZO1 (PubMed:19017651). Interacts with VAPA (PubMed:10523508). Interacts with CLDN1, CLDN6, CLDN9, CLDN11, CLDN12 and CLDN17 (PubMed:20375010).

Similarity: The C-terminal is cytoplasmic and is important for interaction with ZO-1. Sufficient for the tight junction localization. Involved in the regulation of the permeability barrier function of the tight junction (By similarity). The first extracellular loop participates in an adhesive interaction. Belongs to the ELL/occludin family.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes an integral membrane protein that is required for cytokine-induced regulation of the tight junction paracellular permeability barrier. Mutations in this gene are thought to be a cause of band-like calcification with simplified gyration and polymicrogyria (BLC-PMG), an autosomal recessive neurologic disorder that is also known as pseudo-TORCH syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A related pseudogene is present 1.5 Mb downstream on the q arm of chromosome 5. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2011]

Uniprot Description

occludin: May play a role in the formation and regulation of the tight junction (TJ) paracellular permeability barrier. It is able to induce adhesion when expressed in cells lacking tight junctions. Interacts with TJP1/ZO1 and with VAPA. Localized at tight junctions of both epithelial and endothelial cells. Highly expressed in kidney. Not detected in testis. Belongs to the ELL/occludin family. 7 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes

The OCLN ocln (Catalog #AAA9610857) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Occludin Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat Predicted: Pig, Bovine, Horse, Sheep, Dog and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Occludin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Peptide ELISA (EIA). WB: 1:500-1:2000 ELISA (Peptide): 1:20000-1:40000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the OCLN ocln for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Occludin, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.
