| 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. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Cell junction, gap junction {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
CNS specific. Expression is restricted to brain, spinal cord, and sciatic nerve. According to PubMed:12881038, expression is abundant in skeletal muscle, liver, and heart, and to a minor degree in pancreas and kidney. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12151525, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12881038}.
