Description : Gap junctions are conduits that allow the direct cell-to-cell passage of small cytoplasmic
molecules, including ions, metabolic intermediates, and second messengers, and thereby
mediate intercellular metabolic and electrical communication. Gap junction channels
consist of connexin protein subunits, which are encoded by a multigene family that
includes GJB3.;
