The following Claudin 9 ELISA kits are useful research tools for the measurement of claudin 9 in biological samples. In humans this protein is encoded by the CLDN9 gene. This protein is known to play an important role in tight junction-specific obliteration of the intercellular space, through calcium-independent cell-adhesion activity. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 217 residues, a mass of 22.8 kDa, and is a member of the Claudin protein family. Its subcellular location is known to be in the cell membrane. In addition, it is reported to be expressed in the liver, in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and hepatocarcinoma cell lines. The gene encoding this protein has been associated with the disease, Deafness. This protein may also be known as DFNB116.
Some Claudin 9 ELISA kits can detect targets at levels as low as 78 pg/mL and as high as 10 ng/mL. Use the search filters to narrow your search and click on the ELISA kits below for more detailed information, such as reactivity and assay sensitivity.
