To identify signals that convey connexin oligomerization compatibility, we have aligned amino-acid sequences of alpha and beta group connexins (Cx) and compared the physico-chemical properties of each homologous amino-acid residue. Four positions wer

Because in mammals the anterior pituitary lacks innervation, we investigated whether gap junctions established between selected cells within the gland are part of an intrapituitary mechanism to ensure physiological synchronization of cells involved i

Lens fiber cell gap junctions contain alpha(3) (Cx46) and alpha(8) (Cx50) connexins. To examine the roles of the two different connexins in lens physiology, we have genetically engineered mice lacking either alpha(3) or alpha(8) connexin. Intracellul

We used electron cryo-microscopy and image analysis to examine frozen-hydrated, two-dimensional (2D) crystals of a recombinant, 30-kDa C-terminal truncation mutant of the cardiac gap junction channel formed by 43-kDa alpha(1) connexin. To our knowled

A series of arachidonic acid amides including anandamide and arachidonamide that act as potent inhibitors of the rat glial cell gap junction is described.

Gap junction membrane channels mediate electrical and metabolic coupling between adjacent cells. The structure of a recombinant cardiac gap junction channel was determined by electron crystallography at resolutions of 7.5 angstroms in the membrane pl

Connexin alpha 3 (Cx46 or Gja3) gene targeted null mice developed lens nuclear cataracts shortly after birth. A large variance in the cataracts was observed in alpha 3 null sibs on a mixed 129SvJae X C57BL/6J F3 background. This suggested that the ge

Fiber cells of the lens are interconnected by an extensive network of gap junctions containing α 3 (Cx46) and α 8 (Cx50) connexins. A specific role for these connexins in lens homeostasis is not known. To determine the contribution of these connexi

Oleamide is an endogenous fatty acid primary amide that possesses sleep-inducing properties in animals and has been shown to effect serotonergic systems and block gap junction communication in a structurally specific manner. Herein, the structural fe

Oleamide is a sleep-inducing lipid originally isolated from the cerebrospinal fluid of sleep-deprived cats. Oleamide was found to potently and selectively inactivate gap junction–mediated communication between rat glial cells. In contrast, oleamide
