Gap Junctional Coupling in Lenses from α(8) Connexin Knockout Mice

Lens fiber cell gap junctions contain α(3) (Cx46) and α(8) (Cx50) connexins. To examine the roles of the two different connexins in lens physiology, we have genetically engineered mice lacking either α(3) or α(8) connexin. Intracellular impedance studies of these lenses were used to measure junction...
