Cover picture: Connexin 35 (Cx35) forms gap junctions found in both synaptic layers of the bass retina. In this confocal micrograph, the outer (top) and inner (bottom) plexiform layers are labeled in blue with an antibody against the synaptic vesicle protein SV2, and Cx35 is labeled in green. The rod-dominated Mb 1 bipolar cell (red) is one of many retinal neurons that express Cx35 in the inner plexiform layer, but the majority of Cx35 in the outer plexiform layer connects cone photoreceptors. O'Brien et al. show that two connexins, Cx35 and Cx34.7, make gap junctions between cones, and that gap junctions made of Cx35 are dynamically regulated by PKA activity. For details, see the article by O'Brien et al. in this issue (pages 5632–5642).
