Background :

OCLN Antibody: Tight junctions act as a semi-permeable barrier to the transport of ions, solutes, and water and are considered to function as a fence that divides apical and basolateral domains of plasma membranes. Tight junctions coordinate a variety of signaling and trafficking molecules regulating cell differentiation, proliferation, and polarity and contain a number of junctional proteins including Occludin, Claudins, junctional adhesion molecules (JAMs), as well as multiple scaffold proteins. Occludin, the first identified component of tight junction strands, is thought function as a signal transmitter in multiple signaling pathways and can associate with multiple kinases and phosphatases such as PI3-kinase and protein phosphatases 1 and 2A. At least two isoforms of OCLN are known to exist.

ALTnames :

OCLN Antibody: BLCPMG, Occludin

Immunogen :

OCLN antibody was raised against a 15 amino acid synthetic peptide from near the carboxy terminus of human OCLN.

Specificity :

At least three isoforms of OCLN are known to exist.

Purity :

OCLN Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.

Buffer :

OCLN Antibody is supplied in PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide.

Concentration :

1 mg/mL

Uses :

E, WB, IHC, IF

Application Summary :

OCLN antibody can be used for detection of OCLN by Western blot at 1 g/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 2.5 g/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 g/mL.

Storage :

OCLN antibody can be stored at 4 C for three months and -20 C, stable for up to one year. As with all antibodies care should be taken to avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
