- Extra Details:
- MaxLight™ 650 is a new Far-IR stable dye conjugate comparable to Alexa Fluor™647, DyLight™649, Cy5™ and offers better labeling efficiency, brighter imaging and increased immunodetection. Absorbance (655nm); Emission (676nm); Extinction Coefficient 250,000. The claudin (CLDN) superfamily consists of at least 18 homologous proteins in humans. These proteins are important structural and functional components of tight junctions in paracellular transport, complexed with two other integral transmembrane proteins, occludin and junctional adhesion molecule. Claudins are located in both epithelial and endothelial cells in all tight junction-bearing tissues. Claudins interact directly with tight junction-specific, membrane-associated guanylate kinase homologues, ZO-1, ZO-2, and ZO-3, and indirectly with AF-6 and the myosin-binding molecule cingulin. These protein-protein interactions promote scaffolding of the tight junction transmembrane proteins and provide a link to the actin cytoskeleton for transducing regulatory signals to and from tight junctions. Human claudin-1, like other claudin proteins, participates in cell-cell adhesion and regulates paracellular and transcellular transport of solutes across human epithelia and endothelia. Recently, a claudin-1 cDNA has been isolated from human mammary epithelial cells (HMECs). As claudin-1 expression is low or undetectable in a number of breast tumors and breast cancer cell lines, it may be implicated as a possible tumor-suppressor gene. Applications: Suitable for use in FLISA, Western Blot, Immunofluorescence, Immunocytochemistry, Immunoprecipitation and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications have not been tested. Recommended Dilutions: Immunohistochemistry: Frozen and paraffin sections Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Store product at 4°C in the dark. DO NOT FREEZE! Stable at 4°C for 12 months after receipt as an undiluted liquid. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: MaxLight™650 conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap. Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
