Gap Junction beta-1 Protein

Gap junction beta-1-protein

Svensk definition

En gap junction beta-subenhet med fyra transmembrandomäner som uttrycks i myeliniserande schwann-celler och är lokaliserad till perifert myelin (t.ex. icke-kompakt myelin i paranoden och Schmitt-Lanterman incisurer). Mutationer i den humana genen GJB1 är associerade med X-kromosombundet Charcot-Marie-Tooth sjukdom typ 1 (CMT1X).

Engelsk definition
