CLDN9 (claudin 9)

Gene

• Entrez ID: 9080
• Gene name: Claudin 9
• Gene symbol: CLDN9
• Synonyms (NCBI Gene): DFNB116
• Disease Acronyms (UniProt): DFNB116
• Chromosome: 16
• Chromosome location: 16p13.3
• 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
