**Background of Recombinant Human CX36 Protein**
Recombinant human CX36 (connexin 36), encoded by the *GJD2* gene (also known as *GJA9*), is a key component of gap junctions, specialized intercellular channels facilitating direct electrical and metabolic communication between cells. As a member of the connexin family, CX36 is distinguished by its predominant expression in neurons and pancreatic β-cells. It plays a critical role in synchronizing neuronal activity, particularly in brain regions involved in learning, memory, and rhythm generation, such as the hippocampus and retina. Additionally, CX36 is implicated in insulin secretion regulation within pancreatic islets.
Structurally, CX36 consists of four transmembrane domains, two extracellular loops for docking with adjacent cells, and intracellular N- and C-termini. Recombinant CX36 protein is typically produced using expression systems like *E. coli* or mammalian cells (e.g., HEK293), followed by purification via affinity chromatography. This engineered protein retains native functionality, enabling studies on gap junction assembly, channel permeability, and regulatory mechanisms (e.g., phosphorylation).
Research applications include investigating neurological disorders (e.g., epilepsy, autism) and metabolic diseases like diabetes, where CX36 dysfunction is observed. It also serves as a tool for drug discovery targeting intercellular communication pathways. Its recombinant form provides a standardized, scalable resource for both basic research and therapeutic development, emphasizing its dual role as a biomedical research reagent and a potential therapeutic target.
