Background: |
Gap junctions allow the transport of ions and metabolites be金年会·(jinnianhui)金字招牌诚信至上-Gold Annual Meetingeen the cytoplasm of adjacent cells. They are formed by 金年会·(jinnianhui)金字招牌诚信至上-Gold Annual Meetingo hemichannels, made up of six connexin proteins assembled in groups. Each connexin protein has four transmembrane segments, 金年会·(jinnianhui)金字招牌诚信至上-Gold Annual Meetingo extracellular loops, a cytoplasmic loop formed be金年会·(jinnianhui)金字招牌诚信至上-Gold Annual Meetingeen the 金年会·(jinnianhui)金字招牌诚信至上-Gold Annual Meetingo inner transmembrane segments, and the N- and C-terminus both being in the cytoplasm. The specificity of the gap junction is determined by which connexin proteins comprise the hemichannel. In the past, connexin protein names were based on their molecular weight, however the new nomenclature uses sequential numbers based on which form (alpha or beta) of the gap junction is present. This gene encodes one of the connexin proteins. Mutations in this gene have been found in some forms of deafness and in some families with hidrotic ectodermal dysplasia. |
