Name :
Recombinant Human Claudin-6 Protein (Full-length, Nanodisc, Fluorescent, GFP & His Tag)
Biological Activity :
Background :
Claudin-6 (CLDN6) belongs to the claudins family and is a transmembrane protein found in tight junctions with two extracellular loops and intracellular N and C tails. CLDN6 modulates the ion- and charge-specific permeability of the paracellular pathway in most epithelial tissues. It regulates the paracellular flux of cations in the kidney through forming heterotypic strands with other claudins and has a role in maintaining the lung epithelial barrier function. The CLDN6 gene is adjacent to another family member, CLDN9, on chromosome 16. Certain CLDN6-positive cancers, encompassing ovarian, endometrial, and testicular malignancies, have been shown to have their proliferation and invasiveness suppressed upon CLDN6 silencing.

Protein Construction :
A DNA sequence encoding the Human CLDN6(P56747-1) (Met1-Val220) was expressed with a C-terminal GFP followed by a His tag. Nanodisc is a versatile tool for studying membrane proteins. Using styrene-maleic acid (SMA) copolymer, membrane proteins can be extracted directly from prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression systems in the absence of detergents to preserve the protein structure and function better. Compared to membrane scaffold proteins (MSPs) nanodiscs, SMA nanodiscs also have the advantage of preserving proteins’ nature by maintaining native lipids surrounded without introducing any heterologous proteins, which allows studies of protein structure and functions in a native-like environment.
