Supplementary information

ClC-2 or chloride channel 2 is a voltage-gated chloride channel found in the cell membranes. It belongs to the CLC family of chloride channels and transporters weighing approximately 97 kDa. The expression of ClC-2 can be seen in various tissues throughout the body with high levels observed in the brain and intestinal epithelial cells. ClC-2 functions mechanically by facilitating the passive flow of chloride ions across the cell membrane therefore influencing the membrane potential and cellular excitability.
Biological function summary

Chloride channel 2 plays an important role in maintaining cell volume and electrical stability. By regulating the flow of ions ClC-2 supports processes such as signal transmission in neurons and hydration in the bowel. While not directly part of a larger complex its function is influenced by interactions with other membrane proteins which help modulate its activity under different physiological conditions.

Pathways

Chloride channel 2 is involved in cellular processes including the epithelial transport of ions and neuronal signaling pathways. Within the gastrointestinal tract ClC-2 participates in the signaling pathway that maintains fluid balance and absorption. It also interacts with proteins like CFTR to ensure proper ion transport which is particularly important under conditions that stimulate chloride secretion.

Chloride channel 2 has been associated with conditions such as epilepsy and chloride diarrhea. Mutations or dysregulation of ClC-2 can lead to defective ion homeostasis. In epilepsy abnormal ClC-2 function may contribute to neuronal hyperexcitability. Furthermore the relationship between ClC-2 and CFTR is implicated in chloride diarrhea where impaired chloride transport affects intestinal fluid secretion.

Target data

Voltage-gated and osmosensitive chloride channel. Forms a homodimeric channel where each subunit has its own ion conduction pathway. Conducts double-barreled currents controlled by two types of gates, two fast glutamate gates that control each subunit independently and a slow common gate that opens and shuts off both subunits simultaneously. Displays inward rectification currents activated upon membrane hyperpolarization and extracellular hypotonicity (PubMed : 16155254, PubMed : 17567819, PubMed : 19191339, PubMed : 23632988, PubMed : 29403011, PubMed : 29403012, PubMed : 36964785, PubMed : 38345841). Contributes to chloride conductance involved in neuron excitability. In hippocampal neurons, generates a significant part of resting membrane conductance and provides an additional chloride efflux pathway to prevent chloride accumulation in dendrites upon GABA receptor activation. In glia, associates with the auxiliary subunit HEPACAM/GlialCAM at astrocytic processes and myelinated fiber tracts where it may regulate transcellular chloride flux buffering extracellular chloride and potassium concentrations (PubMed : 19191339, PubMed : 22405205, PubMed : 23707145). Regulates aldosterone production in adrenal glands. The opening of CLCN2 channels at hyperpolarized membrane potentials in the glomerulosa causes cell membrane depolarization, activation of voltage-gated calcium channels and increased expression of aldosterone synthase, the rate-limiting enzyme for aldosterone biosynthesis (PubMed : 29403011, PubMed : 29403012). Contributes to chloride conductance in retinal pigment epithelium involved in phagocytosis of shed photoreceptor outer segments and photoreceptor renewal (PubMed : 36964785). Conducts chloride currents at the basolateral membrane of epithelial cells with a role in chloride reabsorption rather than secretion (By similarity) (PubMed : 16155254). Permeable to small monovalent anions with chloride > thiocyanate > bromide > nitrate > iodide ion selectivity (By similarity) (PubMed : 29403012).
