Pannexin1 channel proteins in the zebrafish retina have shared and unique properties.

In mammals, a single pannexin1 gene (Panx1) is widely expressed in the CNS including the inner and outer retinae, forming large-pore voltage-gated membrane channels, which are involved in calcium and ATP signaling.
