Secondary Information

Protein Function tetraspan transmembrane proteins of tight junctions; regulate strength of tight junctions. The tight junction protein claudin-3 has been identified as a transcriptional target of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway regulating blood-brain barrier (BBB) maturation.

Significance of PTMs Phosphorylation of claudin-3 may decrease the tight junction strength in ovarian cancer cells
Additional Comments In neurological disorders loss of claudin-3 immunostaining is observed at the compromised BBB and blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier (BCSFB).
