Genomic Cloning, Molecular Characterization, and Functional Analysis of Human CLCA1, the First Human Member of the Family of Ca2+-Activated Cl−Channel Proteins
1 Dec 1998
Abstract excerpt
We have cloned and molecularly and functionally characterized the first human member of the family of Ca2+-activated Cl- channels, human (h) CLCA1. The 31,902-bp gene is located on chromosome 1p22-31 and is preceded by a canonic promoter region that contains an L1 transposable element. In contrast to all previously known homologs in other species, hCLCA1 is exclusively expressed in intestinal basal crypt...
