Double co-expression of Connexins | ||
---|---|---|
Hemichannels | Gap junction channels | |
2 homomeric 12 heteromeric |
2 homomeric-homotypic 1 homomeric-heterotypic 24 heteromeric-homotypic 168 heteromeric-heterotypic |
|
Total | 14 | 195 |
These amounts consider that each association is possible independently on the connexin composition of hemichannels, and are indicated without considering that each channel can be in 2 different orientations
