Record overview

MGPD IDMGP001211
Gene ID2702
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namegap junction protein, alpha 5, 40kDa
Gene Symbol GJA5
SynonymsCX40; ATFB11;
Alternate namesgap junction alpha-5 protein; connexin 40; gap junction protein alpha 5 40kDa;
Chromosome1
Map Location1q21.1
SummaryThis 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]
