## Abstract Connexins are transmembrane proteins forming gap junction channels for direct intercellular and, for example in myelinating glia cells, intracellular communication. In mature myelin‐forming Schwann cells, expression of multiple connexins, i.e. connexin (Cx) 43, Cx29, Cx32, and Cx46 (aft
