Connexin identity inferred.
Due to metabolic issues, in this study there is some ambiguity of the identities of the compounds that actually permeated the junctional channels. ATP could contribute to the measurement of ADP, AMP and adenosine, and glutamate could contribute to the glutathione measurement. Therefore the relative permeabilities reported may be artifactually skewed toward the downstream metabolic products, resulting in the appearance of lesser relative permeability to ADP/ATP and to glutamate.
Mobile pH buffers are phosphate, homocarnosine, taurine, and acetylated derivatives of anserine, carnosine and histidine (Vaughan-Jones et al., 2002).
