Gap junctions connect cardiac myocytes allowing propagation of action potentials. They contain intercellular channels formed by multiple different connexin proteins. The arrangement and type of gap junctions and the types, function, and interaction of connexin proteins determine intercellular resistance and can thereby influence conduction velocity and the potential for reentrant arrhythmias. Our goal was to develop genetically manipulable models to test the effects of altering expression of a major cardiac connexin (connexin43) on intercellular coupling and expression of other connexin proteins.
