Atomic Force Microscopy Shows Connexin26 Hemichannel Clustering in Purified Membrane Fragments

[Image: see text] Connexin proteins form hexameric assemblies known as hemichannels. When docked to form gap junction (GJ) channels, hemichannels play a critical role in cell–cell communication and cellular homeostasis, but often are functional entities on their own in unapposed cell membranes. Defe...
