CLDN2 - Claudin-2
Order number: 71331
Description
We are excited to offer our off-the-shelf, full-length, active, and native Claudin-2 protein, also known as CLDN2, CLD2, SEMP1, and UNQ705/PRO1356. Claudin-2 is a key component of tight junctions, which regulate the permeability of epithelial cell layers. It plays different passive diffusion functions depending on the cell type it is being expressed in.
Our Claudin-2 protein is solubilized and stabilized using Cube Biotech's NativeMP™ platform, ensuring it retains its native structure and full biological activity, making it ideal for a variety of research applications.
Applications:
- Screening/Validation
- Biologics Development
- Structure Determination
- Small Molecule Drug Development
The protein delivered can be used for these specific applications. When ordering, please indicate which applications you intend to use the protein for in the contact form to ensure the best results.

| Function | Claudins function as major constituents of the tight junction complexes that regulate the permeability of Forms paracellular channels: polymerizes in tight junction strands with cation- and water-selective channels through the strands, conveying epithelial permeability in a process known as paracellular tight junction permeability (PubMed:20460438, PubMed:36008380). In intestinal epithelium, allows for sodium and water fluxes from the peritoneal side to the lumen of the intestine to regulate nutrient absorption and clear enteric pathogens as part of mucosal immune response (By similarity). In kidney, allows passive sodium and calcium reabsorption across proximal tubules from the lumen back to the bloodstream (By similarity). In the hepatobiliary tract, allows paracellular water and cation fluxes in the hepatic perivenous areas and biliary epithelium to generate bile flow and maintain osmotic gradients (By similarity). |
