Summary: Predicted to enable gap junction channel activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to retinoic acid; in utero embryonic development; and spermatogenesis. Located in gap junction. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant nonsyndromic deafness 2B; autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 1A; colorectal adenocarcinoma; erythrokeratodermia variabilis; and erythrokeratodermia variabilis et progressiva 1. Orthologous to human GJB3 (gap junction protein beta 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
