Abstract: Highly organized intercellular tight and adherens junctions are crucial structural components for establishing and maintenance of epithelial barrier functions, which control the microbiota and protect against intruding pathogens in humans. Alterations in these complexes represent… read more here.

Abstract: Transporting epithelial cells in the gut and kidney rely on protocadherin-based apical adhesion complexes to organize microvilli that extend into luminal space. In these systems, CDHR2 and CDHR5 localize to the distal ends of microvilli,… read more here.
