Background

Function
Connexin 45 is a Structural component of the gap junction, a specialized intercellular structure consisting of a cluster of closely packed pairs of transmembrane channels, the connexons, that allow passage of small molecules and electrical signals between neighboring cells. Forms homotypic and heterotypic channels gated by transjunctional voltage (By similarity). Involved in intercellular innate immune signaling. Mediates translocation of 2',3'-cGAMP and 2',5'-oligoadenylates (2-5A) second messengers from virus-infected cells to macrophages and uninfected neighboring cells to propagate and amplify the antiviral immune response[1][2][3].
