Transmembrane proteins of tight junctions.

Biochimica et biophysica acta - 1 Mar 2008

Chiba Hideki, Osanai Makoto, Murata Masaki, Kojima Takashi, Sawada Norimasa

Abstract excerpt

Tight junctions contribute to the paracellular barrier, the fence dividing plasma membranes, and signal transduction, acting as a multifunctional complex in vertebrate epithelial and endothelial cells. The identification and characterization of the transmembrane proteins of tight junctions, claudins, junctional adhesion molecules (JAMs), occludin and tricellulin, have led to insights into the molecular nature of...
