A common sequence variation of the CLCNKB gene strongly activates ClC-Kb chloride channel activity.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In X-linked Alport syndrome, mutations in the COL4A5 gene encoding the alpha 5 chain of type IV collagen result in progressive renal failure. This nephropathy appears to relate to the arrest of a switch from an alpha 1/alpha 2 to an alpha 3/alpha 4/alpha 5 network of type IV collagen in the developing glomer...
