junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum protein 1

The protein encoded by this gene is involved in excitation-contraction coupling at the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The encoded protein can interact with CACNA1S, CACNB1, and calsequestrin to help regulate calcium influx and efflux in skeletal muscle. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]

junctional adhesion molecule 2

This gene belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily, and the junctional adhesion molecule (JAM) family. The protein encoded by this gene is a type I membrane protein that is localized at the tight junctions of both epithelial and endothelial cells. It acts as an adhesive ligand for interacting with a variety of immune cell types, and may play a role in lymphocyte homing to secondary lymphoid organs. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]

junctional adhesion molecule 3

Tight junctions represent one mode of cell-to-cell adhesion in epithelial or endothelial cell sheets, forming continuous seals around cells and serving as a physical barrier to prevent solutes and water from passing freely through the paracellular space. The protein encoded by this immunoglobulin superfamily gene member is localized in the tight junctions between high endothelial cells. Unlike other proteins in this family, the this protein is unable to adhere to leukocyte cell lines and only forms weak homotypic interactions. The encoded protein is a member of the junctional adhesion molecule protein family and acts as a receptor for another member of this family. A mutation in an intron of this gene is associated with hemorrhagic destruction of the brain, subependymal calcification, and congenital cataracts. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2011]

junctional cadherin 5 associated

This gene encodes an endothelial cell-to-cell junction protein. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene are associated with coronary artery disease, late onset alzheimer disease, and emphysema distribution. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2017]

junctional cadherin complex regulator

Predicted to be involved in axoneme assembly and brain development. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cerebrospinal fluid circulation; motile cilium assembly; and regulation of establishment of planar polarity. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]
