Gene

Gja3

Species
Mus musculus
Symbol
Gja3
Name
gap junction protein, alpha 3
Synonyms
  • alpha 3 connexin
  • connexin 46
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable gap junction hemi-channel activity and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including gap junction-mediated intercellular transport; response to hydrogen peroxide; and response to pH. Located in gap junction and plasma membrane. Is expressed in chondrocranium; lens; metanephros; and testis. Used to study cataract 14 multiple types. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cataract 14 multiple types. Orthologous to human GJA3 (gap junction protein alpha 3).
MGI Description
PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutants exhibit lens nuclear cataracts associated with breakdown of gamma crystallin. Severity of the defect is influenced by genetic background. [provided by MGI curators]
