ClC‐6 and ClC‐7 are two novel broadly expressed members of the CLC chloride channel family
Abstract
We cloned two novel members of the CLC chloride channel family from rat and human brain. ClC‐6 is a 97‐kDa protein, and ClC‐7 a 89‐kDa protein roughly 45% identical with ClC‐6. Together they define a new branch of this gene family. Both genes are very broadly expressed, e.g. in brain, testes, muscle and kidney. In mouse embryos, both genes are expressed as early as day 7. Wyile the human gene for ClC‐6 is located on human chromosome 1p36 and shares this region with hClC‐Ka and hClC‐Kb, ClC‐7 is on 16p13. ClC‐6 has a highly conserved glycosylation site between transmembrane domains D8 and D9, while ClC‐7 is the only known eukaryotic ClC protein which lacks this site. Hydropathy analysis indicates that domain D4 cannot serve as a transmembrane domain. Both ClC‐6 and ClC‐7 cannot be expressed as chloride channels in Xenopus oocytes, either singly or in combination.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
