Summary: Enables voltage-gated chloride channel activity. Involved in chloride transport; regulation of resting membrane potential; and stabilization of membrane potential. Acts upstream of or within acinar cell differentiation; cell differentiation involved in salivary gland development; and retina development in camera-type eye. Located in astrocyte end-foot; basolateral plasma membrane; and myelin sheath. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; gonad; hindlimb phalanx; notochord; and visual system. Used to study leukodystrophy and primary hyperaldosteronism. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in idiopathic generalized epilepsy 11 and primary hyperaldosteronism. Orthologous to human CLCN2 (chloride voltage-gated channel 2).

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.
