Cooperative cell–cell actin network remodeling to perform Gap junction endocytosis
Abstract Background The endocytosis of Gap junction plaques (GJP) requires cytoskeletal forces to internalize such large membranous structures. Actin, which partners the connexin proteins constituting Gap junctions and is located close to Annular Gap Junctions (AGJ), could be actively involved in th...
