Claudin 25 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLDN25 gene. ^[3]

Function

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 paracellular space between epithelial or endothelial cell sheets, and also play critical roles in maintaining cell polarity and signal transductions.

Claudin-16 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLDN16 gene. It belongs to the group of claudins.

Claudin-17 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLDN17 gene. It belongs to the group of claudins; claudins are cell-cell junction proteins that keep that maintains cell- and tissue-barrier function. It forms anion-selective paracellular channels and is localized mainly in kidney proximal tubules.

Claudin-10 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLDN10 gene. It belongs to the group of claudins.
