Target Details for Connexin 43/GJA1

Target: Connexin 43/GJA1 (GJA1) (Gap Junction Protein, alpha 1, 43kDa (GJA1))

Alternative Name: Connexin 43

Background: Rabbit Anti-Connexin 43 Polyclonal Antibody,GJA1, GJAL, Gap junction alpha-1 protein, Connexin-43, Cx43, Gap junction 43 kDa heart protein,GJA1 is a member of the connexin gene family. Gap junction protein alpha 1 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. Gap junction protein alpha 1 is the major protein of gap junctions in the heart that are thought to have a crucial role in the synchronized contraction of the heart and in embryonic development. A related intronless pseudogene has been mapped to chromosome 5. Mutations in GJA1 have been associated with oculodentodigital dysplasia, autosomal recessive craniometaphyseal dysplasia and heart malformations.,Gap junction alpha-1 protein
