QuickView for Gja10 (gene)

Gene Symbol:

GJA10 Homo sapiens

Full name:

gap junction protein alpha 10

Synonyms:

CX62, gap junction alpha-10 protein, connexin 62, gap junction protein, alpha 10, 62kDa

Genomic Location:

Chr 6: 90660909-90662540

Description:

Connexins, such as GJA10, are involved in the formation of gap junctions, intercellular conduits that directly connect the cytoplasms of contacting cells. Each gap junction channel is formed by docking of 2 hemichannels, each of which contains 6 connexin subunits (Sohl et al., 2003 [PubMed 12881038]).
