Gjb3 - gap junction protein, beta 3 Gene

Also Known as Cx31; Cxnc; Cnx31; Gjb-3; D4Wsu144e

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 14620

Summary

Predicted to enable gap junction channel activity. Acts upstream of or within placenta development. Located in cytoplasm and gap junction. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; early conceptus; integumental system; reproductive system; and sensory organ. Used to study erythrokeratodermia variabilis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant nonsyndromic deafness 2B; autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 1A; erythrokeratodermia variabilis; and erythrokeratodermia variabilis et progressiva 1. Orthologous to human GJB3 (Gap Junction Protein beta 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
