Background: Claudin-3

Claudin-3 is a 23 kDa multipass membrane protein in the claudin family of epithelial tight junction proteins. Claudin-3 is upregulated by EGF and in inflammation and a variety of epithelial cancers. Its expression is lost in the blood brain barrier during pathological disruptions of that structure. Claudin-3 binding to the Clostridium perfringes exotoxin induces epithelial cell lysis. Human Claudin-3 shares 91% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat Claudin-3.
