Gene name Gap junction protein alpha 10
Gene symbol GJA10
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CX62
Chromosome 6
Chromosome location 6q15
Summary 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

Protein name Gap junction alpha-10 protein (Connexin-62) (Cx62)
Protein 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. Involved in tracer coupling between horizontal cells of the r
