Gap junctions mediate intercellular communication and are critical for development and nervous system function. Initially thought to function solely as stand-alone molecules, it has now been shown that a stomatin-like protein regulates a gap junction channel in Caenorhabditis elegans.
间隙连接介导细胞间通讯，对发育和神经系统功能至关重要。最初认为间隙连接仅作为独立分子发挥作用，现在已经表明，一种类司他汀蛋白可调节秀丽隐杆线虫中的间隙连接通道。
