Background:

Claudin 1-8 proteins are a family of transmembrane proteins associated with tight junctions. Tight junctions are specialized regions of cell to cell contact made up of network of strands that act as a molecular gasket for preventing the leakage of ions, water etc. between cells. They are abundant in luminal epithelial sheets where they maintain epithelial cell polarity. Different tissues exhibit different Claudin composition.

Specificity:

Recognizes endogenous levels of Claudin 4 protein.

Alternative names:

CPER; CPETR1; WBSCR8; Claudin-4; Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin receptor; CPE-R; CPE-receptor; Williams-Beuren syndrome chromosomal region 8 protein
