Gene Symbol GJA5
Gene Full Name gap junction protein, alpha 5, 40kDa
Background This gene is a member of the connexin gene family. The encoded protein is a component of gap junctions, which are composed of arrays of intercellular channels that provide a route for the diffusion of low molecular weight materials from cell to cell. Mutations in this gene may be associated with atrial fibrillation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same isoform have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function One gap junction consists of a cluster of closely packed pairs of transmembrane channels, the connexons, through which materials of low MW diffuse from one cell to a neighboring cell. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Cell junction, Cell membrane, Multi-pass membrane protein, gap junction. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 40 kDa
