Gene information for Cldn14 (Mus musculus)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID56173
Official gene symbolCldn14
Full nameclaudin 14
AliasesAI851731
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the claudin family of tight junction proteins. The encoded protein is an integral membrane protein that may function in maintaining apical membrane polarization in tight junctions located between outer hair cells and supporting cells. Loss of function of this gene is associated with hearing problems. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq]
