A number of ELISA Kits are available that target Cnx43, an alias of the protein, gap junction protein alpha 1. The human protein, encoded by the gene GJA1, is a member of the Connexin family, Alpha-type (group II) subfamily. The protein's cellular localization is indicated to be membrane-associated. Additional synonyms or past names for this protein may include: AVSD3, CMDR, CX43, EKVP, EKVP3, GJAL, HLHS1, HSS, ODDD, PPKCA. Homology is conserved in other species, such as Mouse, Rat, Zebrafish, Frog, Chicken.
