Summary: Enables voltage-gated chloride channel activity and volume-sensitive chloride channel activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular hypotonic response; positive regulation of oligodendrocyte differentiation; and positive regulation of voltage-gated chloride channel activity. Located in several cellular components, including axon initial segment; dendritic spine membrane; and perikaryon. Used to study cystic fibrosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in idiopathic generalized epilepsy 11 and primary hyperaldosteronism. Orthologous to human CLCN2 (chloride voltage-gated channel 2).

ClC-2 and caspase-3 were induced by GDM, which resulted in apoptosis and myelination inhibition. The effect was caused by repressing PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. Application of ClC-2 inhibitor DIDS showed protective effects on cerebral white matter damage stimulated by high glucose concentration.

ClC-2 possesses a common gate, and part of current increase induced by hyperpolarization represents opening of common gate. Protopore gate and common gate of ClC-2 do not appear to be independent.
Title: The voltage-dependent ClC-2 chloride channel has a dual gating mechanism.

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.
