Mutations in cardiovascular connexin genes.

Biology of the cell - 1 Sept 2014

Molica Filippo, Meens Merlijn J P, Morel Sandrine, Kwak Brenda R

Abstract excerpt

Connexins (Cxs) form a family of transmembrane proteins comprising 21 members in humans. Cxs differ in their expression patterns, biophysical properties and ability to combine into homomeric or heteromeric gap junction channels between neighbouring cells. The permeation of ions and small metabolites through gap junction channels or hemichannels confers a crucial role to these proteins in intercellular...
