Claudin-4

UniProtKB accession:  O14493

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Can associate with other claudins to regulate tight junction structural and functional strand dynamics (PubMed:35773259, PubMed:36008380). May coassemble with CLDN8 into tight junction strands containing anion-selective channels that convey paracellular chloride permeability in renal collecting ducts (By similarity) (PubMed:36008380). May integrate into CLDN3 strands to modulate localized tight junction barrier properties (PubMed:35773259, PubMed:36008380). May disrupt strand assembly of channel-forming CLDN2 and CLDN15 and inhibit cation conductance (PubMed:35773259, PubMed:36008380). Cannot form tight junction strands on its own (PubMed:35773259, PubMed:36008380).
