CLDN4

Gene
Cldn4
Protein
Claudin-4
Organism
Mus musculus
Length
210 amino acids
Function
Channel-forming tight junction protein that mediates paracellular chloride transport in the kidney (PubMed:20921420). Plays a critical role in the paracellular reabsorption of filtered chloride in the kidney collecting ducts (PubMed:20921420). Claudins play a major role in tight junction-specific obliteration of the intercellular space, through calcium-independent cell-adhesion activity.
Similarity
Belongs to the claudin family.
