Claudin-10 is a 228 amino acid multipass membrane protein in the Claudin family of epithelial tight junction proteins. Two splice forms of human Claudin-10 have been described with a divergent N-terminal extracellular loop. Claudin-10b (Swiss-Prot isoform 1) is relatively cation-permeant compared to Claudin-10a and is widely expressed, while Claudin‑10a is restricted to the kidney cortex. Claudin-10 is overexpressed in some carcinomas. Human Claudin‑10b shares 94% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat Claudin-10.
