Other Information

**Key Characteristics** CLCN4 is a voltage-gated chloride channel, meaning that its activity is dependent on the electrical potential across the cell membrane. This channel is characterized by its ability to transport chloride ions (Cl-) across the membrane, either in the presence of sodium ions (Na+) or in exchange for sodium ions. The CLCN4 channel is also known for its high affinity for chloride ions, which allows it to efficiently transport Cl- ions across the membrane. In addition, CLCN4 has been shown to interact with other proteins, including voltage-gated sodium channels and potassium channels, to modulate its activity and regulate cellular signaling pathways. **Pathways and Functions** CLCN4 is involved in various cellular processes, including: 1. **Regulation of chloride ion transport**: CLCN4 is responsible for transporting chloride ions across cell membranes, which is essential for maintaining proper ion homeostasis and regulating cellular excitability. 2. **Neuronal function**: CLCN4 is highly expressed in neurons and plays a critical role in regulating neuronal excitability and synaptic transmission. 3. **Gastrointestinal function**: CLCN4 is also expressed in enterocytes and is involved in regulating chloride ion transport across the intestinal epithelium. 4. **Cell signaling**: CLCN4 interacts with other proteins to modulate cellular signaling pathways, including those involved in neuronal development and function. 5. **Ion homeostasis**: CLCN4 helps to maintain proper ion balance across cell membranes, which is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis and preventing disease. **Clinical Significance** Dysregulation of CLCN4 has been implicated in various neurological and gastrointestinal disorders, including: 1. **Epilepsy**: CLCN4 mutations have been associated with various forms of epilepsy, including juvenile myoclonic epilepsy and generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures. 2. **Gastrointestinal disorders**: CLCN4 mutations have been linked to gastrointestinal disorders, including cystic fibrosis and irritable bowel syndrome. 3. **Neurological disorders**: CLCN4 has also been implicated in various neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and schizophrenia. In conclusion, CLCN4 is a critical regulator of chloride ion transport and plays a significant role in various cellular processes, including neuronal function, gastrointestinal function, and cell signaling. Dysregulation of CLCN4 has been implicated in various neurological and gastrointestinal disorders, highlighting the importance of this gene in maintaining proper cellular homeostasis.
