Target Name
CLCN2
Target Full Name
Chloride channel protein 2
Target Function
Voltage-gated chloride channel. Chloride channels have several functions including the regulation of cell volume, membrane potential stabilization, signal transduction and transepithelial transport. Involved in the regulation of aldosterone production. The opening of CLCN2 channels at hyperpolarized membrane potentials in the glomerulosa causes cell membrane depolarization, activation of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels and increased expression of aldosterone synthase, the rate-limiting enzyme for aldosterone biosynthesis.
Target Involvement
Epilepsy, idiopathic generalized 11 (EIG11); Juvenile absence epilepsy 2 (JAE2); Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy 8 (EJM8); Leukoencephalopathy with ataxia (LKPAT)
Target Subcellular Location
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Target Protein Families
Chloride channel (TC 2.A.49) family, ClC-2/CLCN2 subfamily
Target Tissue Specificity
Ubiquitously expressed. Moderately expressed in aortic and coronary vascular smooth muscle cells and expressed at a low level in aortic endothelial cells. Expressed in the adrenal gland, predominantly in the zona glomerulosa.
Target Synonyms
Chloride Channel 2; Chloride channel protein 2; Chloride channel; voltage sensitive 2; CIC 2; CIC2; ClC-2; CLC2; Clcn2; CLCN2_HUMAN; ECA2; ECA3; EG13; EGI11; EGMA; EJM6; EJM8; PKA-activated chloride channel
Target Background
This gene encodes a voltage-gated chloride channel. The encoded protein is a transmembrane protein that maintains chloride ion homeostasis in various cells. Defects in this gene may be a cause of certain epilepsies. Four transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
