Gene nameCLCA2
Protein nameCalcium-activated chloride channel regulator 2 (EC 3.4.-.-) (Calcium-activated chloride channel family member 2) (hCLCA2) (Calcium-activated chloride channel protein 3) (CaCC-3) (hCaCC-3) [Cleaved into: Calcium-activated chloride channel regulator 2, 109 kDa form; Calcium-activated chloride channel regulator 2, 35 kDa form]
SynonymsCACC3
DescriptionFUNCTION: Plays a role in modulating chloride current across the plasma membrane in a calcium-dependent manner, and cell adhesion. Involved in basal cell adhesion and/or stratification of squamous epithelia. May act as a tumor suppressor in breast and colorectal cancer. Plays a key role for cell adhesion in the beginning stages of lung metastasis via the binding to ITGB4. .
