Connexin26 hemichannels with a mutation that causes KID syndrome in humans lack sensitivity to CO(2)

Mutations in connexin26 (Cx26) underlie a range of serious human pathologies. Previously we have shown that Cx26 hemichannels are directly opened by CO(2) (Meigh et al., 2013). However the effects of human disease-causing mutations on the CO(2) sensitivity of Cx26 are entirely unknown. Here, we repo...
