Emiconnessoni

Strutturalmente, sei proteine transmembrana, chiamate connessine, si organizzano a formare emiconnessoni. In molti tessuti ciascun emiconnessone di una cellula si allinea con un emiconnessone di una cellula vicina per formare un canale che mette in comunicazione il citoplasma delle due cellule (E Cap. 4, Fig. 4.3).

A fraction of the protein constituents of membrane proteins are specialized to generate ..... pumps and transporters, channels, structural components, antigens (eg, .... Some of these proteins completely span the bilayer and are called transmembrane proteins, ...... Each hemiconnexon is made from six connexin molecules.

Each channel is formed by 2 hemichannels or hemiconnexons, and each one of them is contributed by 1 of the 2 adjacent cells. A hemiconnexon is an oligomeric assembly of 6 polypeptide subunits, or connexins (Cxs).
