OCLN Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody

Cell localization:Membrane.This gene encodes an integral membrane protein that is required for cytokine-induced regμLation of the tight junction paracellμLar permeability barrier. Mutations in this gene are thought to be a cause of band-like calcification with simplified gyration and polymicrogyria (BLC-PMG), an autosomal recessive neurologic disorder that is also known as pseudo-TORCH syndrome. Alternative splicing resμLts in mμLtiple transcript variants. A related pseudogene is present 1.5 Mb downstream on the q arm of chromosome 5. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2011]
