Western blot : Anti-Connexin 45/GJA7/Cx45 antibody [EPR26705-152] ab316742 staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-CANX (ab238078) loading control staining at 1/20,000 dilution, shown in magenta. A band was observed at 45 kDa in Wild-type A549 UNBOILED cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in GJC1 knockout A549 UNBOILED cell line. To generate this image, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3pc Milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit 800CW & Goat anti-Mouse 680RD at 1/20,000 dilution.

Supplementary information

Connexin 45 also known as Cx45 or GJA7 is a gap junction protein that enables cellular communication by forming channels between adjacent cells. The channels regulate ion and small molecule passage which is critical for maintaining cellular homeostasis. Cx45 has a molecular weight of approximately 45 kDa. This protein expresses in various tissues including the heart brain and smooth muscle indicating its diverse physiological roles.
Biological function summary

Cx45 plays an integral role in intercellular communication by participating in the formation of gap junction channels. It functions as part of the connexin family forming homomeric and heteromeric hemichannels that dock with hemichannels on adjacent cells. This connection is essential for electronic coupling and synchronous activity especially in the cardiac and neural tissues where timely communication is necessary for function.

Pathways

Cx45 contributes significantly to the cardiac conduction system and neural transmission pathways. In cardiac tissues it coordinates with connexin 43 to control electrical signal propagation and regulate heartbeat. Cx45 participates in neural pathways by forming functional networks that support synaptic transmission and neuronal synchronization thereby interacting with proteins like connexin 36.

Mutations or dysregulation of Cx45 associate with cardiac arrhythmias and neurological disorders like epilepsy. In the heart Cx45 along with connexin 43 is essential for maintaining normal cardiac rhythm and disturbances can lead to arrhythmogenic conditions. In the nervous system Cx45 dysfunction can affect neural circuitry contributing to epileptic seizures. It is vital to investigate the role of Cx45 in these conditions for developing therapeutic strategies.
