Mouse Gene Set: GOBP_GAP_JUNCTION_ASSEMBLY

For the Human gene set with the same name, see GOBP_GAP_JUNCTION_ASSEMBLY

Standard name GOBP_GAP_JUNCTION_ASSEMBLY
Systematic name MM5850
Brief description Assembly of gap junctions, which are found in most animal tissues, and serve as direct connections between the cytoplasms of adjacent cells. They provide open channels through the plasma membrane, allowing ions and small molecules (less than approximately a thousand daltons) to diffuse freely between neighboring cells, but preventing the passage of proteins and nucleic acids.
