Descripción

General description

Occludin (OCLN) is an integral membrane protein, encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 5q13.2. OCLN has a molecular weight of about 65kDa. It possesses four transmembrane domains including a long COOH-terminal cytoplasmic domain, a short NH2-terminal cytoplasmic domain, two extracellular loops and one intracellular turn. It is specifically localized at tight junctions (TJ).

Immunogen

a synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminal region of human occludin, conjugated to KLH. The corresponding sequence is highly conserved in rat (89% sequence identity) and in mouse (84% sequence identity) occludin.

Application

Anti-Occludin (C-terminal) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunohistochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Occludin (OCLN), along with tight junction (TJ)-associated peripheral membrane proteins plays a vital role in the formation and regulation of TJ. The encoded protein facilitates the translocation of p85a (regulatory subunit of phosphoinositide 3-kinase) to TJs to regulate actin organization after oxidative stress. OCLN is also implicated in cell migration. Mutation in the gene leads to the development of band-like calcification with simplified gyration and polymicrogyria (BLC-PMG).

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phos­phate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
