Gene information for PANX1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID24145
Official gene symbolPANX1
Full namepannexin 1
Aliases,MGC21309,MRS1,PX1,UNQ2529,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene belongs to the innexin family. Innexin family members are the structural components of gap junctions. This protein and pannexin 2 are abundantly expressed in central nerve system (CNS) and are coexpressed in various neuronal populations. Studies in Xenopus oocytes suggest that this protein alone and in combination with pannexin 2 may form cell type-specific gap junctions with distinct properties. [provided by RefSeq]
