About CLCN4

Cytogenetic location: Xp22.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:10,156,975-10,237,660 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues, 8 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 20.8), heart (RPKM 5.1) and 10 other tissues.

Summary

The CLCN family of voltage-dependent Chloride Channel genes comprises nine members (CLCN1-7, Ka and Kb) which demonstrate quite diverse functional characteristics while sharing significant sequence homology. Chloride Channel 4 has an evolutionary conserved CpG island and is conserved in both mouse and hamster. This gene is mapped in close proximity to APXL (Apical protein Xenopus laevis-like) and OA1 (Ocular albinism type I), which are both located on the human X chromosome at band p22.3. The physiological role of Chloride Channel 4 remains unknown but may contribute to the pathogenesis of neuronal disorders. Alternate splicing results in two transcript variants that encode different proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]
