Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * CLCA1 is a transmembrane protein with a single transmembrane domain that spans the cell membrane. * It is a member of the chloride intracellular channel family. * CLCA1 is a calcium-dependent chloride channel, which means its activity is modulated by calcium levels. * It is also involved in cellular response to hypoxia, suggesting a potential role in maintaining cellular homeostasis under hypoxic conditions. **Pathways and functions:** * CLCA1 is involved in calcium ion transport, maintaining intracellular calcium levels. * It is crucial for chloride homeostasis in various tissues, including blood vessels, the gut, and the brain. * It is involved in cellular response to hypoxia, protecting cells from damage by regulating the influx of Cl- ions. * CLCA1 also participates in chloride transmembrane transport, influencing the movement of Cl- ions between cells. * It is involved in the regulation of epithelial cell function, including the formation of microvilli. * It is also involved in the regulation of small molecule transport and cell signaling. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in CLCA1 have been linked to various diseases, including hypertension, heart failure, and kidney disease. * CLCA1 inhibitors are being investigated as potential treatments for these diseases. **Additional notes:** * CLCA1 is a highly conserved protein, with similar sequences found in mammals, birds, and fish. * It is a promising target for therapeutic intervention in various diseases involving abnormal chloride transport or signaling pathways.
