The PDZ2 domain of zonula occludens-1 and -2 is a phosphoinositide binding domain [PDF]
Zonula occludens proteins (ZO) are postsynaptic density protein-95 discs large-zonula occludens (PDZ) domain-containing proteins that play a fundamental role in the assembly of tight junctions and establishment of cell polarity. Here, we show that the second PDZ domain of ZO-1 and ZO-2 binds phosphoinositides (PtdInsP) and we identified critical ...

Zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) is involved in morula to blastocyst transformation in the mouse [PDF]
It is unknown whether or not tight junction formation plays any role in morula to blastocyst transformation that is associated with development of polarized trophoblast cells and fluid accumulation. Tight junctions are a hallmark of polarized epithelial cells and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) is a known key regulator of tight junction formation.

Association of connexin36 and zonula occludens-1 with zonula occludens-2 and the transcription factor zonula occludens-1-associated nucleic acid-binding protein at neuronal gap junctions in rodent retina [PDF]
Most gap junctions between neurons in mammalian retina contain abundant connexin36, often in association with the scaffolding protein zonula occludens-1. We now investigate co-association of connexin36, zonula occludens-1, zonula occludens-2 and Y-box transcription factor 3 (zonula occludens-1-associated nucleic acid-binding protein) in mouse and rat ...

Telmisartan Increases the Permeability of Endothelial Cells through Zonula Occludens-1
Angiotensin receptor-1 blockers (ARBs) have been used for the treatment of atherosclerosis. Tight junctions are very important in the regulation of cellular permeability which may have a profound role in atherosclerosis. The relationship between them is unresolved.

Zonula Occludens‐1 and ‐2 Are Cytosolic Scaffolds That Regulate the Assembly of Cellular Junctions
The integrity of the tight junction barrier in epithelial and endothelial cells is critical to human health, but we still lack a detailed mechanistic knowledge of how the barrier is formed during development or responds to pathological and pharmacological insults. This limits our understanding of barrier dysfunction in disease and slows the development
