目标描述

Occludin (UniProt: Q16625; also known as OCLN) is encoded by the OCLN gene (Gene ID: 100506658) in human. Occludin is a multi-pass membrane protein that localizes at tight junctions of both epithelial and endothelial cells. It is shown to be highly expressed in kidneys. It plays a role in the formation and regulation of the tight junction paracellular permeability barrier and prevents the transport of macromolecules through the tight junction. Dysregulation of occlude leads to several diseases, including cancer, stroke, and inflammatory lung disease. Occludin has two extracellular domains (aa 90-135 and 196-243), four transmembrane domains (aa 67-89, 136-160, 171-195, and 244-265), and three cytoplasmic domains (aa 1-66, 161-170, and 266-522). The C-terminal cytoplasmic tail binds directly to the ZO-1 proteins, which links the protein complex to the actin cytoskeleton and is involved in the regulation of the permeability barrier function of tight junctions. The first extracellular loop participates in an adhesive interaction. Occludin also exhibits a MARVEL domain (aa 60-269) that is involved in membrane apposition and fusion events. Overexpression of occludin in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells is reported to enhance transepithelial electrical resistance in these cells. Reversible phosphorylation of occluding is shown to play a major role in regulation of occludin and it is tight junction barrier properties. Mutations in OCLN gene can cause Pseudo-TORCH syndrome that is Characterized by microcephaly, intracranial calcifications, and severe developmental delays. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
