Regulation of intermuscular electrical coupling by the Caenorhabditis elegans innexin inx-6.

Molecular biology of the cell - 1 Jul 2003

Li Shaolin, Dent Joseph A, Roy Richard

Abstract excerpt

The innexins represent a highly conserved protein family, the members of which make up the structural components of gap junctions in invertebrates. We have isolated and characterized a Caenorhabditis elegans gene inx-6 that encodes a new member of the innexin family required for the electrical coupling of pharyngeal muscles. inx-6(rr5) mutants complete embryogenesis without detectable abnormalities at restrictive...
