Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 1366
Gene name Claudin 7
Gene symbol CLDN7
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CEPTRL2CLDN-7CPETRL2Hs.84359claudin-1
Chromosome 17
Chromosome location 17p13.1
Summary This gene encodes a member of the claudin family. Claudins are integral membrane proteins and components of tight junction strands. Tight junction strands serve as a physical barrier to prevent solutes and water from passing freely through the paracellula
