Desmosomal cadherins: another growing multigene family of adhesion molecules
Open accessAbstract
The formation of supracellular structures, i.e. tissues and organs, is dependent on the spatially and temporally regulated formation of semistable cell-cell contacts. In recent years, the molecular components of such cell junctions, especially those occurring in epithelial cells, have been studied extensively, and the main proteins and glycoproteins of the 'adhering junctions' such as the desmosomes and the zonula adherens of polar epithelial cells have been characterized. We are now beginning to understand the complex protein-protein interactions that contribute to the assembly and disassembly of these structures and their roles in the attachment of specific filaments of the cytoskeleton.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
