Adherens Junction
- actin microfilaments anchor the plaque that occurs under the membrane of each cell
- plaques not as dense also occur as hemi-form
- heart muscle, layers covering body organs, digestive tract
- transmembrane proteins
- Cadherin
- clustered as focal adhesion
Cadherin isoform naming was based upon the site of original identification: P-cadherin (placenta cadherin, cadherin 3), E-cadherin (epithelial cadherin cadherin 1), N-cadherin (neural cadherin, cadherin 2).
