Adherens Junctions and Pathogen Entry
2012Epithelia are highly organised structures protecting underlying tissues against microbial pathogens. Epithelial morphogenesis and maintenance is mediated by cell-cell adhesion molecules organised in junctional complexes, such as the adherens junctions.

Cadherins and catenins are the central cell-cell adhesion molecules in adherens junctions (AJs). This chapter reviews the knowledge concerning the role of cadherins and catenins in epithelial cancer and examines the published literature demonstrating the changes in the expression and function of these proteins in human cancer and the association of ...

Immunoglobulin Superfamily Receptors and Adherens Junctions
2012The immunogroblin (Ig) superfamily proteins characterized by the presence of Ig-like domains are involved in various cellular functions. The properties of the Ig-like domains to form rod-like structures and to bind specifically to other proteins make them ideal for cell surface receptors and cell adhesion molecules (CAMs).

E-cadherin-based adherens junctions are required for proper adhesion and orientation of epithelial cells within a sheet, as well as playing a role in asymmetric cell division. Although a lot is known – about how E-cadherin-based junctions link to the cytoskeleton, much less is known – about how their localization in the cell is controlled.

Epithelial cells are joined by adherens junctions, which consist of homotypic interactions between extracellular domains of E-cadherins. Inside the cell, the tails of E-cadherins bind actin cables through β-catenin and α-catenin. Formin1 is critically important for the formation of actin cables; it binds directly to α-catenin and can even bypass the ...

Adherens Junctions and Cadherins in Drosophila Development
2012Drosophila represents a paradigm for the analysis of the cellular, molecular and genetic mechanisms of development and is an ideal model system to study the contribution of Adherens Junctions (AJs) and their major components, cadherins, to morphogenesis.

Associated proteins of lens adherens junction
Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 2002AbstractCytoplasmic proteins associated with adherens junctions were identified in the chicken ocular lens. The catenins, α, β, and γ, were present in epithelial and fiber cells, although their pattern of distribution changed with fiber cell differentiation. The sharp decline in α‐catenin with fiber cell formation and the increasing Triton‐insolubility

Structural Aspects of Adherens Junctions and Desmosomes
2004The cadherin-containing intercellular junctions, adherens junctions and desmosomes share an overall logical organization in which the extracellular regions of the cadherins on opposing cells interact, while their cytoplasmic domains are linked to the cytoskeleton through protein assemblies.

Adherens junctions in Drosophila retinal morphogenesis
Trends in Cell Biology, 2007Adherens junctions and their core molecular components, classic cadherins, make major contributions to animal morphogenesis. Although the significance of cadherins in development is generally accepted, the mechanisms regulating adherens junction function during morphogenesis remain a subject of intense research.
