Figure 8

Effect of cytoplasmic tail (CT) truncation on fast Vj gating in Cx43. (A) Left: trace of channel activity recorded at a transjunctional voltage of −60 mV. In the expanded inset, shows clear transitions between the main open and residual state (fast gating). Right: all-events histogram showing the distribution of the observed conductance events. (B) Recording of activity by CT-truncated Cx43 channels at Vj = −60 mV. The trace and all-events histogram shows that only gating between the main open and closed state was observed.
