GJC3( Human )
gap junction protein gamma 3
Alias
CX29|CX30.2|CX31.3|GJE1
This gene encodes a gap junction protein. The encoded protein, also known as a connexin, plays a role in formation of gap junctions, which provide direct connections between neighboring cells. Mutations in this gene have been reported to be associated with nonsyndromic hearing loss.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010].
