Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** CLIC2 is a member of the Chloride Intracellular Channel (CLIC) family, which comprises proteins that share a conserved structure and function. CLIC2 is characterized by its ability to form pores in cellular membranes, allowing chloride ions to flow through and regulate various cellular processes. The protein is expressed in numerous cell types, including immune cells, epithelial cells, and muscle cells, underscoring its broad functional significance. **Pathways and Functions:** CLIC2 is involved in multiple signaling pathways, including: 1. **Cardiac Conduction:** CLIC2 regulates the release of sequestered calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, influencing cardiac muscle contraction and electrical activity. 2. **Cellular Oxidant Detoxification:** CLIC2 participates in the regulation of glutathione peroxidase activity, which protects cells against oxidative stress. 3. **Ion Homeostasis:** CLIC2 maintains ion balance by regulating chloride ion transport across cellular membranes. 4. **Signal Transduction:** CLIC2 modulates the activity of various signaling pathways, including those involved in cellular responses to stimuli. **Clinical Significance:** CLIC2 has been implicated in various diseases and disorders, including: 1. **Cardiovascular Diseases:** CLIC2 dysfunction has been linked to cardiac arrhythmias, heart failure, and sudden cardiac death. 2. **Immunological Disorders:** CLIC2 has been associated with autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, where it plays a role in the regulation of immune cell function. 3. **Muscular Disorders:** CLIC2 mutations have been identified in patients with muscular dystrophy and myasthenia gravis. 4. **Cancer:** CLIC2 has been implicated in cancer progression and metastasis, where it regulates cell migration, invasion, and survival. In conclusion, CLIC2 is a multifunctional protein that plays a critical role in various cellular processes, including ion homeostasis, cellular oxidant detoxification, and signal transduction. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases and disorders, highlighting the need for further research into the mechanisms underlying CLIC2 function and its clinical significance.
