GJA5. also known as connexin 40 (Cx40), is a member of the connexin family of transmembrane proteins that form gap junctions. These intercellular channels facilitate direct communication between adjacent cells by allowing the exchange of ions, metabolites, and signaling molecules. GJA5 is encoded by the *GJA5* gene located on human chromosome 1q21.1 and is predominantly expressed in cardiovascular tissues, including atrial cardiomyocytes, vascular endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells. It plays a critical role in regulating cardiac electrophysiology, vascular tone, and embryonic development.
In the heart, GJA5 contributes to coordinated electrical conduction by enabling rapid propagation of action potentials across atrial tissue. Mutations or dysregulation of GJA5 have been linked to arrhythmias, particularly atrial fibrillation, and congenital heart defects such as tetralogy of Fallot. Reduced Cx40 expression is associated with slowed conduction velocity, increasing susceptibility to re-entrant arrhythmias. Additionally, GJA5 polymorphisms are implicated in abnormal coronary artery development.
Recombinant GJA5 protein is engineered for functional studies and therapeutic exploration. Produced via heterologous expression systems (e.g., *E. coli* or mammalian cells), it retains the ability to self-assemble into hexameric connexons and form functional gap junctions. Researchers use recombinant GJA5 to investigate channel kinetics, intercellular coupling mechanisms, and disease-related mutations. Its applications extend to drug screening for arrhythmia treatments and gene therapy approaches targeting connexin deficiencies. Notably, recombinant Cx40 has been utilized in vitro to model atrial-specific gap junction behavior and test antiarrhythmic compounds. Ongoing studies also explore its potential in restoring electrical synchrony in damaged cardiac tissue, highlighting its relevance in precision medicine for cardiovascular disorders.
