Phosphorylation of claudin-2 on serine 208 promotes membrane retention and reduces trafficking to lysosomes.

Abstract excerpt

Claudins are critical components of epithelial and endothelial tight junction seals, but their post-transcriptional regulation remains poorly understood. Several studies have implicated phosphorylation in control of claudin localisation and/or function, but these have focused on single sites or pathways with differing results, so that it has been difficult to draw general functional conclusions. In this study, we...
