13-8100 reacts strongly with Connexin-26, which has a predicted molecular weight of 26.5 kDa. Reactivity of this antibody on western blots has been confirmed by using extracts from mouse liver, mouse brain, and rat brain and it appears to exhibit minimal cross-reaction with Cx30 by western blotting. The degree of cross-reaction with Cx30 by IHC is uncertain, but may be influenced by fixation conditions.
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. GJBs (gap-junction proteins or connexins) play crucial functional roles associated with these channels. Defects in GJB3 have been linked to erythrokeratodermia variables (EKV) is an autosomal dominant genodermatosis characterized by transient figurate red patches or hyperkeratosis. Mutations in GJB2 have also been associated with genetically derived hearing impairments, including autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness.
