Function
Barrier-forming claudin. Plays a major role in tight junction-specific obliteration of the intercellular space, through calcium-independent cell-adhesion activity.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Cell junction, tight junction; Cell membrane (Multi-pass membrane protein)
Disease Association: [CLDN3 is located in the Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) critical region. WBS results from a hemizygous deletion of several genes on chromosome 7q11.23, thought to arise as a consequence of unequal crossing over between highly homologous low-copy repeat sequences flanking the deleted region]
