| C3008 | Human CLDN18.1-FLAG-CHO-K1 Stable Cell Line | 2 vials | $2300 | Order |
Claudin-18 (CLDN18) is a member of a large family of four-span transmembrane proteins called Claudins. These proteins are the essential components of the mammalian tight junctions (TJs) in epithelial cells. Claudin-18 has two splice variants, 18.1 and 18.2. While CLDN18.1 is specifically expressed in the lung tissue, CLDN18.2 expression in normal tissue is more restricted and is only detected in small patches of stomach mucosal.
