Specifications
Target Information
Rat connexin 43 (CX43) is a major gap junction protein that enables direct intercellular communication. It forms channels allowing the passage of ions and signaling molecules between adjacent cells. CX43 is prominently expressed in cardiac and smooth muscle tissues, as well as in the nervous system, where it coordinates electrical and metabolic coupling. Its function is integral to maintaining tissue integrity, regulating cardiac conduction, and facilitating synaptic plasticity. As a central component of cell-to-cell communication, CX43 is an important focus for understanding tissue development, homeostasis, and disease mechanisms.
