| ZO-3, a ~130kD protein, contains three PSD-95/SAP90, discs-large, ZO-1 (PDZ) domains, a SH3 domain, and a guanylate kinase-liked domain. Like ZO-1 and ZO-2, ZO-3 contains a C-terminal acidic domain and a basic region (between the first and second PDZ domains), making it belongs to the MAGUK protein family. By Western blot analysis, ZO-3 is identified as a ~130kD protein that directly interacts with tight junction proteins ZO-1 and occuldin, but not with ZO-2. However, in one study, ZO-2, ZO-3 and Occludin colocalized with actin aggregates at cell border in MDCK cells. ZO-3 is localized to sites of cell-cell interaction, identical to that of ZO-1 in tight junctions. By immunoprecipitation analysis, ZO-3 co-immunoprecipitates with ZO-1. Using MDCK cells, ZO-3 protein colocalized with ZO-1 by immunofluorescence. In vitro binding assays, the N-terminal of ZO-3 showed preferably binding of ZO-1 and actin filaments3. Moreover, the binding of ZO-1/ZO-2/ZO-3 was also found to interact with certain Claudin proteins. | | | Catalog # | Z0773 | | Applications | Suitable for use in Immunoflourescence, ELISA, Western Blot, Immunoprecipitation and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. | | Recommended Dilution | Immunofluorescence: 0.5–2ug/ml. | | ELISA: 0.1–1ug/ml | | Western Blot: 1–3ug/ml | | Immunoprecipitation: 2–3ug | | Immunohistochemistry: 4-5ug/ml. Fixation of tissues with 2% paraformaldehyde/picric acid followed by NO post-fixation is required to produce staining in mouse liver tissues. Stronger fixation has been observed to abolish labeling. | | Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. | | Storage and Stability | May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%). Freeze at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. | | CAS Number | n/a | | Clone Type | Polyclonal | | Isotype | IgG | | Host | Rabbit | | Source | Human | | Concentration | ~0.25mg/ml | | Form | Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.2, 0.1% sodium azide. | | Purity | Purified by immunoaffinity chromatography. | | Immunogen | Synthetic peptide derived from the C-terminus of the human ZO-3 protein. | | Specificity | Recognizes the human ZO-3 protein.
