About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for GJC2:
This gene encodes a gap junction protein. Gap junction proteins are members of a large family of homologous connexins
and comprise 4 transmembrane, 2 extracellular, and 3 cytoplasmic domains. This gene plays a key role in central
myelination and is involved in peripheral myelination in humans. Defects in this gene are the cause of autosomal
recessive Pelizaeus-Merzbacher-like disease-1. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: CXG2_HUMAN, Q5T442
Function: 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. May play a role in myelination in
central and peripheral nervous systems

summary for GJC2:
Gap channels (also known as gap junctions) are specalized cell-cell contacts between almost all eukaryotic
cells that provide direct intracellular communication. Generally, gap channels allow the passive diffusion
of molecules up to 1 kDa which includes nutrients, small metabolites (e.g. glucose), ions (K+, Ca2+) and
second messengers (IP3, cAMP and cGMP). Gap channels allow electrical and biochemical coupling between cells
and in excitable tissues, such as neurons and the heart, enables the generation of synchronized and rapid
responses. Structurally, gap channels are composed of two hemichannels called 'connexons', which themselves
are formed from six connexin molecules. Homo- and heteromeric combinations are seen, which exhibit distinct
permeability, selectivity and functional properties. Pannexins are related to connexins and can also form
gap junctions. However, their expression is limited to the brain. Furthermore, in nonchordate animals a
family of proteins called innexins form these channels. Gap channels are regulated through
post-translational modifications of the C'-terminal cytoplasmic tail and phosphorylation modulates assembly
and their physiological properties. They are continuously synthesized and degraded, allowing tissues to
rapidly adapt to changing environmental conditions. Connexins play a key role in many physiological
processes including cardiac and smooth muscle contraction, regulation of neuronal excitability, epithelial
electrolyte transport and keratinocyte differentiation. Mutations in connexin genes are associated with
human diseases including sensorineural deafness, a variety of skin disorders, peripheral neuropathy and
cardiovascular disease.

    OMIM gene information: 608803   
    OMIM disorders: 608804  613206  613480  
    UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: CXG2_HUMAN, Q5T442
  • Defects in GJC2 are the cause of leukodystrophy hypomyelinating type 2 (HLD2) [MIM:608804]; also known as
  • Pelizaeus-Merzbacher-like disease autosomal recessive type 1. HLD2 is an autosomal recessive hypomyelinating
    leukodystrophy characterized by nystagmus, impaired motor development, ataxia, choreoathetotic movements, dysarthria
    and progressive spasticity
  • Defects in GJC2 are the cause of spastic paraplegia autosomal recessive type 44 (SPG44) [MIM:613206]. A form
  • of spastic paraplegia, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a slow, gradual, progressive weakness and
    spasticity of the lower limbs. Rate of progression and the severity of symptoms are quite variable. Initial symptoms
    may include difficulty with balance, weakness and stiffness in the legs, muscle spasms, and dragging the toes when
    walking. In some forms of the disorder, bladder symptoms (such as incontinence) may appear, or the weakness and
    stiffness may spread to other parts of the body
  • Defects in GJC2 are the cause of lymphedema hereditary type 1C (LMPH1C) [MIM:613480]. LMPH1C is a chronic
  • disabling condition which results in swelling of the extremities due to altered lymphatic flow. Patients with
    lymphedema suffer from recurrent local infections and physical impairment
