Abstract: "The model organism C. elegans contains 25 innexin genes and innexins are found in virtually all cell types and tissues." P.1 left column top paragraph: "Members of the innexin gene family (innexins: invertebrate analogs of connexins) in C. elegans were first described in 1996 (Starich, 1996), and with the complete sequence of the C. elegans genome it was revealed that the family consists of 25 genes (primary source)." |
