Distinct behavior of connexin56 and connexin46 gap junctional channels can be predicted from the behavior of their hemi-gap-junctional channels.

The gap-junctional protein rat connexin46 (Cx46) has the unusual ability to form voltage-gated channels in the nonjunctional plasma membrane of Xenopus oocytes (Paul et al., 1991; Ebihara and Steiner, 1993). These have been suggested to be gap-junctional hemichannels or connexons. The Xenopus oocyte...
