Species
Homo Sapiens (Human)
Specificity
The antibody detects endogenous levels of total CLDN8 protein.
Subcellular Location
Cell junction, tight junction, Cell membrane, Multi-pass membrane protein
Tight-junction protein required for paracellular chloride transport in the kidney. Mediates recruitment of CLDN4 to tight junction in the kidney. Claudins play a major role in tight junction-specific obliteration of the intercellular space, through calcium-independent cell-adhesion activity.
Protein Families
Claudin family
Tissue Specificity
Expressed in the epididymis, mainly in the caput segment.
Buffer
Rabbit IgG in phosphate buffered saline (without Mg2+ and Ca2+), pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol.
Form
