Summary
CLCN2 (chloride voltage-gated channel 2, HGNC:2020) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 3q27.1, encoding Chloride channel protein 2 (P51788). Voltage-gated and osmosensitive chloride channel.
This gene encodes a voltage-gated chloride channel. The encoded protein is a transmembrane protein that maintains chloride ion homeostasis in various cells. Defects in this gene may be a cause of certain epilepsies. Four transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function. Voltage-gated and osmosensitive chloride channel. Forms a homodimeric channel where each subunit has its own ion conduction pathway. Conducts double-barreled currents controlled by two types of gates, two fast glutamate gates that control each subunit independently and a slow common gate that opens and shuts off both subunits simultaneously. Displays inward rectification currents activated upon membrane hyperpolarization and extracellular hypotonicity. Contributes to chloride conductance involved in neuron excitability. In hippocampal neurons, generates a significant part of resting membrane conductance and provides an additional chloride efflux pathway to prevent chloride accumulation in dendrites upon GABA receptor activation. In glia, associates with the auxiliary subunit HEPACAM/GlialCAM at astrocytic processes and myelinated fiber tracts where it may regulate transcellular chloride flux buffering extracellular chloride and potassium concentrations. Regulates aldosterone production in adrenal glands. The opening of CLCN2 channels at hyperpolarized membrane potentials in the glomerulosa causes cell membrane depolarization, activation of voltage-gated calcium channels and increased expression of aldosterone synthase, the rate-limiting enzyme for aldosterone biosynthesis. Contributes to chloride conductance in retinal pigment epithelium involved in phagocytosis of shed photoreceptor outer segments and photoreceptor renewal. Conducts chloride currents at the basolateral membrane of epithelial cells with a role in chloride reabsorption rather than secretion. Permeable to small monovalent anions with chloride > thiocyanate > bromide > nitrate > iodide ion selectivity.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Interacts with auxiliary subunit HEPACAM.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane. Basolateral cell membrane. Cell projection. Dendritic spine membrane. Axon.
Tissue specificity. Ubiquitously expressed. Moderately expressed in aortic and coronary vascular smooth muscle cells and expressed at a low level in aortic endothelial cells. Expressed in the adrenal gland, predominantly in the zona glomerulosa. Expressed in white mater perivascular astrocytes and ependymal cells (at protein level).
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated. Activated by dephosphorylation.
Disease relevance. Epilepsy, idiopathic generalized 11 (EIG11) [MIM:607628] A disorder characterized by recurring generalized seizures in the absence of detectable brain lesions and/or metabolic abnormalities. Generalized seizures arise diffusely and simultaneously from both hemispheres of the brain. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Juvenile absence epilepsy 2 (JAE2) [MIM:607628] A subtype of idiopathic generalized epilepsy characterized by onset occurring around puberty, absence seizures, generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS), GTCS on awakening, and myoclonic seizures. Disease susceptibility may be associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy 8 (EJM8) [MIM:607628] A subtype of idiopathic generalized epilepsy. Patients have afebrile seizures only, with onset in adolescence (rather than in childhood) and myoclonic jerks which usually occur after awakening and are triggered by sleep deprivation and fatigue. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Leukoencephalopathy with ataxia (LKPAT) [MIM:615651] An autosomal recessive neurologic disorder with a characteristic pattern of white matter abnormalities on brain MRI. Affected individuals have prominent signal abnormalities and decreased apparent diffusion coefficient values in the posterior limbs of the internal capsules, middle cerebral peduncles, pyramidal tracts in the pons, and middle cerebellar peduncles, suggesting myelin microvacuolation. Clinical features include ataxia and unstable gait. More variable abnormalities may include visual field defects, headaches, and learning disabilities. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Hyperaldosteronism, familial, 2 (HALD2) [MIM:605635] An autosomal dominant disorder characterized by elevated plasma aldosterone level and hypertension of varying severity even within members of the same family. Hypokalemia is observed in some patients. In HALD2, hypertension does not improve with glucocorticoid treatment. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. Common gate kinetics are down-regulated by intracellular ATP. Inhibited by AK-42, a derivative of meclofenamate. Inhibited by Cd(2+). Inhibited by Zn(2+) and PKC activation. Inhibited at acidic pH. CCLN2:HEPACAM channel conductance is up-regulated upon hypo-osmolarity.
Miscellaneous. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.
Similarity. Belongs to the chloride channel (TC 2.A.49) family. ClC-2/CLCN2 subfamily.
