Transmission electron micrograph of adherens junctions (macula adherens or desmosome)in the proximal tubule of a rat kidney. The junctions with associated tonofilaments are seen at the apposed plasma...

Transmission electron micrograph of tight junction (zonula occludens) between adjacent plasma membranes in the distal kidney tubule. The darkly staining horizontal structure forms the junctional compl...

Transmission electron micrograph of a tight junction (zonula occludens)between two cells in a section of tissue from a rat thyroid. Image made available by James D. Jamieson and the Department of Cel...

Transmission electron micrograph of two frog epithelial cell cells showing the tight junction complex running horizontally in this image. Additional reference: Farquhar, M.G. and G.E. Palade. 1965. ...

A single frame from a time-lapse animation of FlAsH-labeled MDCK cells expressing Cx43-4C309/337 (green) showing their rearrangement and fate during and after mitosis. In the time-lapse series, which...

A time-lapse movie showing the dorsal pouch formation and migration of heart-anchoring cells (HANCs) in the Drosophila embryo expressing ubi-DE-cad-GFP (Shg-GFP). Shg-positive HANCs corresponding to t...

Maximum intensity projection of a confocal z series of MDCK cells expressing Cx43-GFP-4C imaged with confocal microscopy. This image has been downsampled from the raw data image, and time lapse series...

ZO-1 polypeptides lacking the unique-6 (U6) motif are concentrated within disorganized strands on the lateral surface of MDCK cells. MDCK II cells transfected with deltaU6 (A–F) or ZNG (aa1-806) ( (...

The unique-6 (U6) motif of the MAGUK protein, ZO-1, inhibits tight junction localization of GFP fusion proteins containing the SH3-GUK module. Stable MDCK II cell lines expressing GFP fusion proteins ...

Cell expressing delta U6 ZO-1 constructs show novel freeze fracture strands extending onto the lateral membrane. Stable MDCK cell lines were fixed and analyzed by freeze fracture electron microscopy. ...
