cadherins

44
Q

widely believed to be a key step in initiated cancer metastasis

Gap junctions
Hemidesmosomes
Focal adhesions
50
Q
  • Joins the plasma membrane of two cells together
  • Form a belt like seal that limits the diffusion of water, ions and large solutes, and prevents cell migration
  • Separate the interior of the body from the outside world

A

mutations in connexin-32

62
Q

  • Result of homophilic (like – like) interactions between cadherins
A

adherens junctions

63
Q
  • Are also the result of homophilic intereactions between cadherins

67
Q

actin-related biding proteins promote filament formation

A

formins and ARP’s

68
Q

3 steps of cell crawling with actin

A
  1. the cell pushes out protrusion at the front
  2. the protrusions adhere to the surface
  3. the rest of the cell drags itself forward as a result of anchorage points
