General description

Connexin 45 is member of a family of gap junction proteins known as Connexin gene family. It is expressed in a wide variety of cell types during development and adult life, particularly in cardiac and smooth muscle tissues as well as brain tissues. Connexin 45 forms part of a network of intercellular channels that provide a route for the diffusion of low molecular weight materials from cell to cell. There a number of alternatively spliced transcript variants that all seen to encode the same protein isoform.

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to Human Connexin 45.

The posterodorsal medial amygdala (MePD) has an adapted synaptic organization that dynamically modulates reproduction and other social behaviors in rats. Discrete gap junctions between glial cells were previously reported in the MePD neuropil. Connexins (Cx) are components of gap junctions
