CLDN6 - Claudin-6
Order number: 70820
Description
We are excited to introduce our off-the-shelf, full-length, active, and native Claudin 6, commonly known as CLDN6. This protein has been demonstrated to play a pivotal role in the specific obliteration of the intercellular space, a process that is integral to the maintenance of tight junctions. It functions as a receptor for the hepatitis C virus (HCV) to enter into hepatitic cells. Furthermore, it has been identified as a tumour-promoting gene, with a correlation between its expression and various forms of cancer, including ovarian, cervical, and endometrial carcinomas. Consequently, it is considered a promising target for cancer therapy.
Our CLDN6 protein has been solubilized and stabilized using our NativeMP™ platform, ensuring it retains its native structure and full biological activity, making it ideal for various research applications.
