Tight junctions (blue dots) between cells are connected areas of the plasma membrane that stitch cells together. Adherens junctions (red dots) join the actin filaments of neighboring cells together.

Keeping cells together—how our body resists mechanical stressAt least three types of junctions are known: tight junctions, adherens junctions, and desmosomes. Previous studies have shown that adherens junctions and desmosomes play critical roles in ...
The researchers next turned their attention to the molecular mechanism behind these abnormalities by identifying several of NS2A’s interacting partners, including some involved in cell-to-cell contact ...
