TAT-Gap19 is a connexin43 (Cx43) hemichannel blocker, with an IC50 of 7 μM and no significant affinity for gap junctions or Panx1 channels.  TAT-Gap19 is derived from Gap19, a sequence present on the intracellular cytoplasmic loop  domain of Cx43, linked to the HIV-derived TAT internalization sequence to  promote membrane permeability, which also allows brain penetration.  In mouse models of liver damage, TAT-Gap19 can protect against liver fibrosis accompanied by superoxide dismutase overactivation and reduces production of inflammatory proteins.
