Biochem/physiol Actions

H(+)/Cl(-) exchange transporter 5 is a protein encoded by the CLCN5 gene in humans. It encodes a member of the CLC gene family of chloride ion channels and ion transporters. CLCN5 is highly expressed in endosomes of proximal tubule cells and is essential for endocytosis. Mutations in CLCN5 causes Dent′s disease leading to renal failure. It is also involved in low-molecular-weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, nephrolithiasis and renal failure. Majority of these disease-causing mutations in ClC-5 are misprocessed and retained in the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) and may alter intramolecular interactions within the full-length ClC-5 protein. CLC-5 plays a crucial role in the process of endocytosis in the proximal tubule of the kidney and mutations that alter protein function are the cause of Dent′s disease. It may act as an electrically shunting Cl- channel in early endosomes, facilitating intraluminal acidification.

ClC-5 is a 2Cl(-)/1H(+) antiporter highly expressed in endosomes of proximal tubule cells. It is essential for endocytosis and mutations in ClC-5 cause Dent's disease, potentially leading to renal failure. However, the physiological role of ClC-5 is still unclear. One

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) occurs in around 40% of those with diabetes. Proteinuria is the main characteristic of DN and develops as a result of increased permeability of the glomerulus capillary wall and/or decreased proximal tubule endocytosis. The goal of this

Tubular dysfunction is characteristic of Dent's disease; however, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) can also be present. Glomerulosclerosis could be secondary to tubular injury, but it remains uncertain whether the CLCN5 gene, which encodes an endosomal chloride and/or hydrogen exchanger, plays
