Summary: Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in bicellular tight junction assembly and calcium-independent cell-cell adhesion via plasma membrane cell-adhesion molecules. Predicted to act upstream of or within axon ensheathment and spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including lipid droplet; neurofilament; and tight junction. Predicted to be active in bicellular tight junction and plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypomyelinating leukodystrophy 22. Orthologous to human CLDN11 (claudin 11).

Disorganization of claudin-11 and dysfunction of the blood-testis barrier during puberty in a cryptorchid rat model.
Title: Disorganization of claudin-11 and dysfunction of the blood-testis barrier during puberty in a cryptorchid rat model.
An increase in proinflammatory cytokines might be responsible for deregulation of Cldn11 in the Sertoli cells in varicocele testes, leading to alterations in the permeability of the blood-testis barrier and immunological barriers to normal spermatogenesis.
Title: Changes in Inflammatory Cytokines Accompany Deregulation of Claudin-11, Resulting in Inter-Sertoli Tight Junctions in Varicocele Rat Testes.
We provide quantitative evidence that claudin-11 contributes significantly to Sertoli cell tight junction function in vitro. Interestingly, occludin, which is hormonally regulated but not implicated in infertility until late adulthood, is also a significant contributor to barrier function.
Title: Claudin-11 and occludin are major contributors to Sertoli cell tight junction function, in vitro.
Cardiotonic steroids may influence the formation of the blood-testis barrier via regulation of Cldn1 and Cldn11 expression.
Title: Cardiotonic steroid ouabain stimulates expression of blood-testis barrier proteins claudin-1 and -11 and formation of tight junctions in Sertoli cells.
claudin-11 expression in rat Sertoli cells is regulated by androgens and postmeiotic germ cells
Title: Androgens and postmeiotic germ cells regulate claudin-11 expression in rat Sertoli cells.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
