FIGURE 5:

S279A and S282A mutants restore gap junction assembly. (A) BxPC3 and Capan-1 cells were transiently cotransfected with EGFP and the indicated Cx43 constructs. Cells were immunostained for Cx43 (red). Note that the S279A and S282A mutants restored gap junction assembly as robustly as the sorting-motif mutant YA/VD-Cx43, whereas S279D and S282D did not. (B) Capan-1 and BxPC3 cells were transiently transfected with Myc-tagged S279A and were immunostained for Cx43 (red) and Myc (green) after 24 h. Note the robust colocalization of total Cx43 with Myc.
