Gap junction proteins are members of a large family of homologous connexins and comprise 4 transmembrane, 2 extracellular, and 3 cytoplasmic domains. This gene plays a key role in central myelination and is involved in peripheral myelination in humans. Defects in this gene are the cause of autosomal recessive Pelizaeus-Merzbacher-like disease-1. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**: 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. May play a role in myelination in central and peripheral nervous systems. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15192806}. <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> |Connexin CCC| |Connexin| </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |gap junction channel activity involved in cell communication by electrical coupling| |positive regulation of oligodendrocyte progenitor proliferation| |proximal neuron projection| |regulation of oligodendrocyte progenitor proliferation| |paranode region of axon| |gap junction| |cell communication by electrical coupling| |connexin complex| |myelin sheath| |positive regulation of neural precursor cell proliferation| |positive regulation of gliogenesis| |positive regulation of calcium ion transmembrane transport| |regulation of neural precursor cell proliferation| |negative regulation of G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle| |negative regulation of cell cycle G1/S phase transition| |regulation of gliogenesis| |positive regulation of calcium ion transport| |perikaryon| |positive regulation of cation transmembrane transport| |regulation of calcium ion transmembrane transport| |regulation of G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle| |positive regulation of ion transmembrane transport| |regulation of cell cycle G1/S phase transition| |positive regulation of transmembrane transport| |negative regulation of mitotic cell cycle phase transition| |negative regulation of cell cycle phase transition| |regulation of calcium ion transport| |positive regulation of ion transport| |negative regulation of mitotic cell cycle| |negative regulation of cell cycle process| |regulation of cation transmembrane transport| |regulation of metal ion transport| |regulation of mitotic cell cycle phase transition| |regulation of cell cycle phase transition| |positive regulation of neurogenesis| |regulation of ion transmembrane transport| |response to toxic substance| |positive regulation of nervous system development| |positive regulation of cell development| |regulation of transmembrane transport| |negative regulation of cell cycle| |regulation of mitotic cell cycle| |regulation of ion transport| |brain development| |regulation of cell cycle process| |head development| |regulation of neurogenesis| |positive regulation of cell population proliferation| |regulation of nervous system development| |regulation of cell development| |positive regulation of cell differentiation| |central nervous system development| |positive regulation of transport| |cell-cell signaling| |regulation of cell cycle| |transmembrane transport| |positive regulation of developmental process| |regulation of protein phosphorylation| |generation of neurons| |regulation of phosphorylation| |regulation of cell population proliferation| |neurogenesis| |positive regulation of multicellular organismal process| |regulation of phosphate metabolic process| |regulation of phosphorus metabolic process| |regulation of cell differentiation| |regulation of protein modification process| |regulation of transport| |positive regulation of gene expression| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='default' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> No hits were found. </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 1/739 ^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|1/17| |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| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 7493 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: -1.2 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='GJC2 Expression in NALM6 Cells: -1.2'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2025/12/10 20:19by 127.0.0.1
