Cellular Localisation: [Isoform 1]: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cytoplasm, cell cortex. Membrane; Single-pass membrane protein. Apical cell membrane; Single-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O00299} Note=Associates with the cortical actin cytoskeleton (PubMed:10793131, PubMed:15184393) . Localizes to the apical region of cochlear hair cells, at the base of the actin-rich hair bundle (By similarity) Colocalizes with podocalyxin at the apical cell membrane in renal glomeruli (PubMed:20335315) . May localize to the centrosome in lens epithelial cells (By similarity) . Exists both as soluble cytoplasmic protein and as membrane protein with probably a single transmembrane domain (By similarity) . {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O00299, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8BXK9, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9EPT8, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10793131, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15184393, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20335315}
Molecular Weight: 46503
Clone: Polyclonal
Gene Name: CLIC5
Gene ID: 53405
Function: Required for normal hearing (PubMed:24781754) . It is necessary for the formation of stereocilia in the inner ear and normal development of the organ of Corti (By similarity) . Can insert into membranes and form poorly selective ion channels that may also transport chloride ions. May play a role in the regulation of transepithelial ion absorption and secretion. Is required for the development and/or maintenance of the proper glomerular endothelial cell and podocyte architecture (PubMed:15184393, PubMed:18028448, PubMed:20335315) . Plays a role in formation of the lens suture in the eye, which is important for normal optical properties of the lens (By similarity) .
Summary: Tissue Location: Widely expressed in both fetal and adult human tissues (PubMed:24781754) . Isoform 1 is expressed in renal glomeruli endothelial cells and podocytes (at protein level)
