Reconstitution of functional tight junctions with individual claudin subtypes in epithelial cells

Reconstitution of functional tight junctions with individual claudin subtypes in epithelial cells

The claudin family of membrane proteins is responsible for the backbone structure and function of tight junctions (TJs), which regulate the paracellular permeability of epithelia. It is thought that each claudin subtype has its own unique function and the combination of expressed subtypes determines...
