Array substrate and display panel

An array substrate, comprising:

• a base substrate, wherein the base substrate comprises a display region and a peripheral region surrounding the display region, the array substrate comprises a plurality of pixel unit groups arranged in the display region along a first direction, each pixel unit group comprises a plurality of pixel units arranged along a second direction, and each pixel unit comprises a thin film transistor;
• the array substrate further comprises:
• a plurality of gate lines arranged along the first direction, wherein each gate line extends along the second direction, and comprises a first conductive pattern and a first conductive connection line alternately arranged along the second direction, the first conductive connection line is connected to adjacent first conductive patterns, and the first conductive pattern further acts as a gate electrode of the thin film transistor;
• and
• a common electrode, wherein an orthographic projection of the common electrode on the base substrate covers at least an orthographic projection of the first conductive connection line on the base substrate.
