Human connexin26 and connexin30 form functional heteromeric and heterotypic channels.
Mutations in GJB2 and GJB6, the genes that encode the human gap junction proteins connexin26 (Cx26) and connexin30 (Cx30), respectively, cause hearing loss. Cx26 and Cx30 are both expressed in the cochlea, leading to the potential formation of heteromeric hemichannels and heterotypic gap junction channels. To investigate their interactions, we expressed human Cx26 and Cx30 individually or toget...
متن کاملHeteromeric connexons in lens gap junction channels.
Gap junction channels are formed by paired oligomeric membrane hemichannels called connexons, which are composed of proteins of the connexin family. Experiments with transfected cell lines and paired Xenopus oocytes have demonstrated that heterotypic intercellular channels which are formed by two connexons, each composed of a different connexin, can selectively occur. Studies by Stauffer [Stauf...

متن کاملFunctional and biochemical evidence for heteromeric ATP-gated channels composed of P2X1 and P2X5 subunits.
The mammalian P2X receptor gene family encodes two-transmembrane domain nonselective cation channels gated by extracellular ATP. Anatomical localization data obtained by in situ hybridization and immunocytochemistry have shown that neuronal P2X subunits are expressed in specific but overlapping distribution patterns. Therefore, the native ionotropic ATP receptors diversity most likely arises fr...
متن کاملNovel Drosophila two-pore domain K channels: rescue of channel function by heteromeric assembly.
Ten genes with essential structural features of two-pore domain potassium channels were identified in the genome of Drosophila melanogaster. Two Drosophila two-pore domain potassium subunits displayed substantial amino acid similarity to human TWIK-related acid-sensitive K(+) (TASK) channels (38-43%), whereas all others were less than 26% similar to any human homolog. The cDNAs of Drosophila TA...
