Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the family of voltage-gated chloride channels. Chloride channels have several functions, including the regulation of cell volume, membrane potential stabilization, signal transduction and transepithelial transport. This gene is expressed predominantly in the kidney and may be important for renal salt reabsorption. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive Bartter syndrome type 3 (BS3). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009],
Function
disease:Defects in CLCNKB are the cause of Bartter syndrome type 3 (BS3) [MIM:607364]; also known as classic Bartter syndrome. It is an autosomal recessive form of often severe intravascular volume depletion due to renal salt-wasting associated with low blood pressure, hypokalemic alkalosis, hypercalciuria, and normal serum magnesium levels.,function:Voltage-gated chloride channel. Chloride channels have several functions including the regulation of cell volume; membrane potential stabilization, signal transduction and transepithelial transport. May be important in urinary concentrating mechanisms.,miscellaneous:Compared with CLCNKA/BSND, CLCNKB/BSND is more sensitive to pH and less responsive to Ca(2+).,similarity:Belongs to the chloride channel (TC 2.A.49) family.,similarity:Contains 2 CBS domains.,subunit:Interacts with BSND. Forms heteromers with BSND in the thick ascending limb of H
