Cell-cell
junctions
anchoring
actin filament anchor
adherent junction
- cell-cell junction
- cadherins as transmembrane adhesion proteins
actin linked EM
- cell-EM junction
- integrins as transmembrane adhesion proteins
-
occluding
in vertebrates
tight junctions
- prevents free passage of molecules
- separate apical and basolateral domains
- claudins and occludins as transmembrane proteins
-
channel-forming
in animals
gap-junctions
- connection between cytoplasms of adjacent cells
- passage for ions and small molecules
- 6 connexins (transmembrane protein) = connexon
in plants
plasmodesmata
- connection between cytoplasms of adjacent cells
- mediated by cell walls
