Gap junction assembly: roles for the formation plaque and regulation by the C-terminus of connexin43

Using an established gap junction (GJ) assembly system with experimentally reaggregated cells, we analyzed “formation plaques” (FPs), apparent sites of GJ assembly. Employing freeze-fracture electron microscopy methods combined with filipin labeling of sterols and immunolabeling for connexin43 (Cx43...
