Description
Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for Claudin-2(CLDN2) detection. Tested with WB, IHC-P in Human;Rat. No cross reactivity with other proteins. Claudin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLDN2 gene. By genomic sequence analysis, this gene is mapped to chromosome Xq22.3-q23. This gene product belongs to the claudin protein family whose members have been identified as major integral membrane proteins localized exclusively at tight junctions. Claudins are expressed in an organ-specific manner and regulate tissue-specific physiologic properties of tight junctions. By expression in a human intestinal epithelial cell line, it was determined that the intestine-specific homeodomain proteins CDX1 and CDX2 activated a reporter plasmid driven by the CLDN2 promoter.
