Target Information

Target Symbol OCLN
Target Name Occludin
UniProt ID Q16625
Cellular Localization Membrane. Cell junction > tight junction.
Function May play a role in the formation and regulation of the tight junction (TJ) paracellular permeability barrier. It is able to induce adhesion when expressed in cells lacking tight junctions.
Involvement in Disease Defects in OCLN are the cause of band-like calcification with simplified gyration and polymicrogyria (BLCPMG); also known as pseudo-TORCH syndrome. BLCPMG is a neurologic disorder with characteristic clinical and neuroradiologic features that mimic intrauterine TORCH infection in the absence of evidence of infection. Affected individuals have congenital microcephaly, intracranial calcifications, and severe developmental delay.
Post-translational Modifications Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR. Dephosphorylated by PTPRJ. The tyrosine phosphorylation on Tyr-398 and Tyr-42 reduces its ability to interact with TJP1.
Domain The C-terminal is cytoplasmic and is important for interaction with ZO-1. Sufficient for the tight junction localization. Involved in the regulation of the permeability barrier function of the tight junction (By similarity). The first extracellular loop participates in an adhesive interaction.
Sequence Similarities Belongs to the ELL/occludin family. Contains 1 MARVEL domain.
