The organization of adherens junctions and desmosomes at the cardiac intercalated disc is independent of
gap junctions. J.

Pannexin 1 and pannexin 3 are glycoproteins that exhibit many distinct characteristics from the connexin family of
gap junction proteins.
X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 1 (CMT1X) disease is a hereditary chronic progressive disease, which is caused by mutations in the
gap junction beta-1 protein ( GJB1 ) gene encoding the
gap junction protein connexin 32 (Cx32).
Diverse
gap junctions are found between various retinal neurons, (40,41) and electrical transmission through
gap junctions serves various lateral interactions.
ECM-receptor interaction, fatty acid metabolism, TGF-beta signaling, and
gap junction pathway were involved in these predicted pathways.
