UniProtKB - P29033 (CXB2_HUMAN)

Protein

Gap junction beta-2 protein

Gene

GJB2

Organism
Homo sapiens (Human)
Status
Reviewed-Annotation score: -Experimental evidence at protein leveli

Functioni

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.

Caution

The Thr-34 allele was originally thought to be a cause of autosomal dominant and recessive deafness (DFNA3 and DFNB1) (PubMed:9139825). However, Thr-34 effect on hearing is controversial. Some studies supports its pathogenic role (PubMed:17935238 and PubMed:16849369). Others provide evidence of the non-pathogenic nature of this variant (PubMed:9422505 and PubMed:14694360).1 Publication
