Gjb4 - gap junction protein, beta 4

Predicted to enable gap junction channel activity. Predicted to be involved in cell-cell signaling and gap junction-mediated intercellular transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within olfactory behavior and sensory perception of smell. Predicted to be located in cell junction; nucleolus; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be integral component of plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of connexin complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in erythrokeratodermia variabilis and erythrokeratodermia variabilis et progressiva 2. Orthologous to human GJB4 (gap junction protein beta 4).
