Gap junction remodeling associated with cholesterol redistribution during fiber cell maturation in the adult chicken lens

PURPOSE: To investigate the structural remodeling in gap junctions associated with cholesterol redistribution during fiber cell maturation in the adult chicken lens. We also evaluated the hypothesis that the cleavage of the COOH-terminus of chick Cx50 (formerly Cx45.6) during fiber cell maturation w...
