The channels regulate ion and small molecule passage which is critical for maintaining cellular homeostasis. Cx45 has a molecular weight of approximately 45 kDa. This protein expresses in various tissues including the heart brain and smooth muscle indicating its diverse physiological roles.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nCx45 plays an integral role in intercellular communication by participating in the formation of gap junction channels. It functions as part of the connexin family forming homomeric and heteromeric hemichannels that dock with hemichannels on adjacent cells. This connection is essential for electronic coupling and synchronous activity especially in the cardiac and neural tissues where timely communication is necessary for function.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCx45 contributes significantly to the cardiac conduction system and neural transmission pathways. In cardiac tissues it coordinates with connexin 43 to control electrical signal propagation and regulate heartbeat. Cx45 participates in neural pathways by forming functional networks that support synaptic transmission and neuronal synchronization thereby interacting with proteins like connexin 36.\u003cbr\u003e\nMutations or dysregulation of Cx45 associate with cardiac arrhythmias and neurological disorders like epilepsy. In the heart Cx45 along with connexin 43 is essential for maintaining normal cardiac rhythm and disturbances can lead to arrhythmogenic conditions. In the nervous system Cx45 dysfunction can affect neural circuitry contributing to epileptic seizures. It is vital to investigate the role of Cx45 in these conditions for developing therapeutic strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845052420265,"sku":"ab78408","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab78408","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
