Occludin Antibody (740006MP488) in ICC/IF
CRISPR-Cas9 mediated genome editing of Occludin (as confirmed by next generation sequencing) was achieved by using LentiArray™ Lentiviral sgRNA (Product # A32042, AssayID CRISPR777079_LV) and LentiArray Cas9 Lentivirus (Product # A32064). Immunofluorescence analysis was performed on wild type Caco-2 cells (panel a-d), Caco-2 Cas9 control cells (panel e-h) and Caco-2 Cas9 cell line transduced with Occludin Lentiviral sgRNA cells (panel i-l). Cells were fixed, permeabilized, and labelled with Occludin Recombinant Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (O... View More

Product Specific Information
Alexa Fluor™ Plus recombinant antibodies are conjugated using new, proprietary dye chemistry so you can generate stunning data. Alexa Fluor™ Plus antibodies represent an advancement in fluorescent conjugate technology. Alexa Fluor™ Plus antibodies provide brighter signal compared to leading Alexa Fluor™ antibodies, providing you with better signal-to-noise for your critical experiments. These antibodies show better specificity and lot-to-lot consistency as these are recombinant antibodies, generated by cloning specific genes for the desired antibodies into an expression vector and expressed in vitro.
Using conjugate solutions: Centrifuge the protein conjugate solution briefly in a microcentrifuge before use; add only the supernatant to the experiment. This step will help eliminate any protein aggregates that may have formed during storage, thereby reducing nonspecific background staining.
Applications Tested: This OC-3F10 antibody has been tested by immunocytochemistry and flow cytometric analysis of Caco-2 cells. This may be used for immunocytochemistry at 0.5 µg/mL and for flow cytometry at less than or equal to 0.25 µg per test. A test is defined as the amount (µg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
Excitation: 494 nm; Emission: 519 nm; Laser: Blue Laser
Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.
Target Information
Occludin is a 65 kDa protein that can exist in a variety of phosphorylated forms, ranging up to approximately 82 kDa. Occludin is thought to be involved in regulating both the localization and the function of occludin. Polyunsaturated fatty acids are known to up-regulate occludin expression, increasing the transendothelial cell resistance and reducing the cellular permeability to large molecules. The level of occludin varies greatly depending on tissue; in brain tissue, occludin is highly and continuously expressed at cell-cell contact sites, whereas non-neural tissues show lower expression and discontinuous distribution. Overall structural features of the occludin protein are highly conserved in all the species examined. Under-expression of tight junction proteins, including occludin, is a key molecular abnormality responsible for the increased permeability of tumor endothelial tight junctions, which contributes to brain tumor edemas.
