Gene Information

human ... GJA3(2700)

General description

GJA3, an integral membrane protein, belong to the connexin family, alpha-type (group II) subfamily. 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. A connexon is composed of a hexamer of connexins. This particular connexin is a component of lens fiber gap junctions, can form both junctional and nonjunctional (′hemi-′) channels. Defects in GJA3 are the cause of zonular pulverulent cataract type 3 (CZP3), a form of autosomal dominant congenital cataract.

Immunogen

GJA3 (NP_068773, 112-148)
This antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide selected from the N-term region of human GJA3.
