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]. * **UniProt Summary**: 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. {ECO:0000250}. |Connexin| |Connexin CCC| |AV node cell to bundle of His cell communication by electrical coupling| |gap junction channel activity involved in AV node cell-bundle of His cell electrical coupling| |AV node cell to bundle of His cell communication| |cell communication by electrical coupling involved in cardiac conduction| |cell communication by electrical coupling| |connexin complex| |myelin sheath| |cell communication involved in cardiac conduction| |cardiac conduction| |myelination| |ensheathment of neurons| |axon ensheathment| |multicellular organismal signaling| |sensory perception of sound| |sensory perception of mechanical stimulus| |regulation of heart contraction| |regulation of blood circulation| |regulation of system process| |protein homodimerization activity| |sensory perception| |nervous system process| |system process| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp175|3-Bromopyruvate 7μM R04 exp175]]|1.7| |[[:results:exp352|Dexamethasone 0.006 to 0.015μM on day4 R07 exp352]]|1.74| ^Gene^Correlation^ |[[:human genes:p:polr2j3|POLR2J3]]|0.528| |[[:human genes:p:prpf8|PRPF8]]|0.419| |[[:human genes:n:npipb8|NPIPB8]]|0.402| Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 0/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **Essentiality Rank**: 2274 * **Expression level (log2 read counts)**: -2.64 {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}}
