Chloride Intracellular Channel 2 (CLIC2) (AA 1-247) protein (His tag)
Description
Chloride Intracellular Channel Protein 2 (CLIC2) is a critical component of all living cells, it regulates cellular traffic of Chloride ion and it can be inserted into membranes anf form chloride ion channels. Membrane insertion seems to be redox-regulated and may occur only under oxydizing conditions, channel activity depends on the pH. CLIC2 is involved in regulating membrane potential and organic solute transport. CLIC2 modulates the activity of RYR2 and inhibits Calcium influx. CLIC2 can be detected in the adult brain, liver, lung, heart, stomach, spleen and testis. It is expressed in fetal liver and adult skeletal muscle. CLIC2 is a potential candidate for one of many diseases linked to Xq28.Alternative Names: Chloride Intracellular Channel Protein 2, XAP121, CLIC2
