The Adherens Junction: A Mosaic of Cadherin and Nectin Clusters Bundled by Actin Filaments

Cadherin and nectin are distinct transmembrane proteins of adherens junctions. Their ectodomains mediate adhesion while their cytosolic regions couple the adhesive contact to the cytoskeleton. Both these proteins are essential for adherens junction formation and maintenance. However, some basic aspe...
