High impact information on CLIC6

Here we report the molecular cloning and initial characterisation of two splice forms of a novel member of this family, CLIC6, mapping to human chromosome 21 [1].
The CLIC6 protein is significantly longer and the CLIC6 gene contains a GC rich segment, which encodes a 10 amino acid motif repeated 14 times in the amino-terminus [1].
We also identified a new member of CLIC (Chloride Intracellular Channel) family on 21q, namely CLIC6 [2].
