Caenorhabditis elegansInnexins Regulate Active Zone Differentiation [PDF]
In a genetic screen for active zone defective mutants inCaenorhabditis elegans, we isolated a loss-of-function allele ofunc-7, a gene encoding an innexin/pannexin family gap junction protein. Innexin UNC-7 regulates the size and distribution of active zones atC. elegansneuromuscular junctions. Loss-of-function mutations in another innexin, UNC-9, cause

What can insects teach us about hearing loss?
Abstract figure legend Schematic of insect and mammalian auditory systems with homologous cell types colour matched. Common causes of hearing loss and shared mechanisms are depicted in the centre. Shared mechanisms of genetic disorders include cytoskeletal and ion channel disorders.

Innexin hemichannel activation by Microplitis bicoloratus ecSOD monopolymer reduces ROS
Summary: The extracellular superoxide dismutases (ecSODs) secreted by Microplitis bicoloratus reduce the reactive oxygen species (ROS) stimulated by the Microplitis bicoloratus bracovirus.

Expression patterns of innexins functioning in C. elegans body-wall muscle.
Expression patterns were assessed by analyzing GFP signal in live worms expressing innexin promoter and GFP transcriptional fusions. Body-wall muscle expression (indicated by arrows) was observed for four of the six innexins important to muscle ...

Pannexin 2 protein expression is not restricted to the CNS
Pannexins are proteins homologous to the invertebrate gap junction proteins called innexins and are traditionally described as transmembrane channels connecting the intracellular and extracellular compartments.

Functional Comparison of Two Virus Innexins
Some Parasitoid wasps rely on Polydnavirus to determine suitable hosts and complete their parasitization. Ichnoviruses (IV), one subfamily of Polydnavirus, are associated with Ichneumonids, have one highly conserved gene family named vinnexins.

Summary: Bracoviruses have two hosts: symbiotic wasps and infected hosts. Although symbiotic wasps and infected Spodoptera litura larva host bracoviruses, mature virions form only in the wasps after the integrated Microplitis bicoloratus bracovirus (MbBV)

Evaluating innexins quantitatively and qualitatively in the developing leech : identified neurons in Hirdudo medicinalis express unique subsets of the innexin genes / c Brandon Sarkis Kandarian [PDF]
Gap junctions are clusters of intercellular channels which enable direct cell-to cell cytoplasmic communication both electrically and chemically. Gap junctions play an important role in determining cell fate and function during development, underlining ...
