C-terminal, alpha helical domain of Chloride Intracellular Channel 6 Glutathione S-transferase (GST) C-terminal domain family, Chloride Intracellular Channel (CLIC) 6 subfamily; CLICs are auto-inserting, self-assembling intracellular anion channels involved in a wide variety of functions including regulated secretion, cell division, and apoptosis. They can exist in both water-soluble and membrane-bound states and are found in various vesicles and membranes, and they may play roles in the maintenance of these intracellular membranes. The membrane localization domain is present in the N-terminal part of the protein. Structures of soluble CLICs reveal that they adopt a fold similar to GSTs, containing an N-terminal domain with a thioredoxin fold and a C-terminal alpha helical domain. CLIC6 is expressed predominantly in the stomach, pituitary, and brain. It interacts with D2-like dopamine receptors directly and through scaffolding proteins. CLIC6 may be involved in the regulation of secretion, possibly through chloride ion transport regulation. |
