Identification
BMDB Protein ID BMDBP01605
Secondary Accession Numbers None
Name Claudin-16
Synonyms Not Available
Gene Name CLDN16
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in identical protein binding
Specific Function Plays a major role in tight junction-specific obliteration of the intercellular space, through calcium-independent cell-adhesion activity. Involved in paracellular magnesium reabsorption. Required for a selective paracellular conductance. May form, alone or in partnership with other constituents, an intercellular pore permitting paracellular passage of magnesium and calcium ions down their electrochemical gradients. Alternatively, it could be a sensor of magnesium concentration that could alter paracellular permeability mediated by other factors (By similarity).
