Rabbit polyclonal antibody to CLIC3 (F56)

CLIC3 (chloride intracellular channel protein 3) is a member of the highly conserved family of chloride ion channels (CLICs) that function in both soluble and integral membrane forms. Chloride channels regulate cellular traffic of chloride ions, a critical component of all living cells. They are involved in membrane potential stabilization, signal transduction, cell volume regulation and organic solute transport. CLIC3 is found in a variety of tissues but is highly expressed in placenta, brain and heart. CLIC3 predominantly localizes to the nucleus and stimulates chloride ion channel activity when expressed in cells. In addition, CLIC3 interacts with ERK 7 and may play a role in the regulation of cell proliferation.
