NCBI Summary for CX32
This gene encodes a member of the gap junction protein family. The gap junction proteins are membrane-spanning proteins that assemble to form gap junction channels that facilitate the transfer of ions and small molecules between cells. According to sequence similarities at the nucleotide and amino acid levels, the gap junction proteins are divided into two categories, alpha and beta. Mutations in this gene cause X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, an inherited peripheral neuropathy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
UniProt Comments for CX32
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.
Research Articles on CX32
1. Study reports mutation frequency of GJB1 in 210 Hungarian Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy (CMT) patients and phenotype comparison between male and female CMT X type 1 patients. 13 missense substitutions were found in GJB1; pathogenic alterations were found mainly in males. Statistical analysis of CMT X type 1 patients revealed a significant difference between genders regarding the age of onset, CMT and examination scores.
