Structure of the CLC-1 chloride channel from Homo sapiens
CLC channels mediate passive Cl− conduction, while CLC transporters mediate active Cl− transport coupled to H+ transport in the opposite direction. The distinction between CLC-0/1/2 channels and CLC transporters seems undetectable by amino acid sequence. To understand why they are different function...
