gene geneOn this page
Summary
CLDN2 (claudin 2, HGNC:2041) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xq22.3, encoding Claudin-2 (P57739). Forms paracellular channels: polymerizes in tight junction strands with cation- and water-selective channels through the strands, conveying epithelial permeability in a process known as paracellular tight junction permeability.
This gene product belongs to the claudin protein family whose members have been identified as major integral membrane proteins localized exclusively at tight junctions. Claudins are expressed in an organ-specific manner and regulate tissue-specific physiologic properties of tight junctions. This protein is expressed in the intestine. Alternatively spliced transcript variants with different 5’ untranslated region have been found for this gene.

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Forms paracellular channels: polymerizes in tight junction strands with cation- and water-selective channels through the strands, conveying epithelial permeability in a process known as paracellular tight junction permeability. In intestinal epithelium, allows for sodium and water fluxes from the peritoneal side to the lumen of the intestine to regulate nutrient absorption and clear enteric pathogens as part of mucosal immune response. In kidney, allows passive sodium and calcium reabsorption across proximal tubules from the lumen back to the bloodstream. In the hepatobiliary tract, allows paracellular water and cation fluxes in the hepatic perivenous areas and biliary epithelium to generate bile flow and maintain osmotic gradients.
Subunit / interactions. Can form homo- and heteropolymers with other claudins to mediate paracellular barrier and channel functions of tight junctions in response to physiological stimuli. Homopolymers interact with CLDN3, but not CLDN1, homopolymers. Directly interacts with TJP1/ZO-1, TJP2/ZO-2 and TJP3/ZO-3.
Subcellular location. Cell junction. Tight junction. Cell membrane.
Post-translational modifications. The disulfide bond is necessary for pore formation, but is not required for correct protein trafficking.
Disease relevance. Azoospermia, obstructive, with nephrolithiasis (OAZON) [MIM:301060] An X-linked recessive, male infertility disorder characterized by epidydimal obstruction, hypercalciuria and kidney stones. The disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Similarity. Belongs to the claudin family.
