Anti-CLIC5a, clone CLIC5-02 (PE )

Protein function: Can insert into membranes and form poorly selective ion channels that may also transport chloride ions. May play a role in the regulation of transepithelial ion absorption and secretion. Required for normal formation of stereocilia in the inner ear and normal development of the organ of Corti. Is required for the development and/or maintenance of the proper glomerular endothelial cell and podocyte architecture. [The UniProt Consortium]
