Target Details for Pannexin 2

Target: Pannexin 2 (PANX2)

Alternative Name: PANX2

Background: PANX2 belongs to the innexin family. Innexin family members are the structural components of gap junctions. This protein and pannexin 1 are abundantly expressed in central nerve system (CNS) and are coexpressed in various neuronal populations. Studies in Xenopus oocytes suggest that this protein alone and in combination with pannexin 1 may form cell type-specific gap junctions with distinct properties.The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the innexin family.
