CC -!- FUNCTION: Gap junction protein that acts as a regulator of bladder
CC capacity. A gap junction consists of a cluster of closely packed pairs
CC of transmembrane channels, the connexons, through which materials of
CC low MW diffuse from one cell to a neighboring cell. May play a critical
CC role in the physiology of hearing by participating in the recycling of
CC potassium to the cochlear endolymph. Negative regulator of bladder
CC functional capacity: acts by enhancing intercellular electrical and
CC chemical transmission, thus sensitizing bladder muscles to cholinergic
CC neural stimuli and causing them to contract. May play a role in cell
CC growth inhibition through the regulation of NOV expression and
CC localization. Plays an essential role in gap junction communication in
CC the ventricles (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P08050,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P23242}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: A connexon is composed of a hexamer of connexins. Interacts
CC with SGSM3 (By similarity). Interacts with RIC1/CIP150 (By similarity).
CC Interacts with CNST and CSNK1D (By similarity). Interacts (via C-
CC terminus) with TJP1. Interacts (via C-terminus) with SRC (via SH3
CC domain). Interacts (not ubiquitinated) with UBQLN4 (via UBA domain) (By
CC similarity). Interacts with NOV. Interacts with TMEM65 (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P08050, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17302,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P23242}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17302};
CC Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000255}. Cell junction, gap junction
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17302}. Endoplasmic reticulum
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P23242}. Note=Localizes at the intercalated disk
CC (ICD) in cardiomyocytes and proper localization at ICD is dependent on
CC TMEM65. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P23242}.
CC -!- PTM: Phosphorylation at Ser-326, Ser-329 and Ser-331 by CK1 modulates
CC gap junction assembly. Phosphorylated at Ser-369 by PRKCG;
CC phosphorylation induces disassembly of gap junction plaques and
CC inhibition of gap junction activity. Phosphorylation at Ser-369 by
CC PRKCD triggers its internalization into small vesicles leading to
CC proteasome-mediated degradation (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P08050, ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17302,
CC ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q6TYA7}.
CC -!- PTM: Sumoylated with SUMO1, SUMO2 and SUMO3, which may regulate the
CC level of functional Cx43 gap junctions at the plasma membrane. May be
CC desumoylated by SENP1 or SENP2 (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P17302}.
CC -!- PTM: Acetylated in the developing cortex; leading to delocalization
CC from the cell membrane. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P23242}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the connexin family. Alpha-type (group II)
CC subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
