Gene name

GJA5 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

CX40

Description

Gap junction protein, alpha 5, 40kDa (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene is a member of the connexin gene family. The encoded protein 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. Mutations in this gene may be associated with atrial fibrillation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same isoform have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
