| tight junction | <cell biology> Specialised intercellular junction in which the two plasma membranes are separated by only 1-2nm. Found near the apical surface of cells in simple epithelia, forms a sealing gasket around the cell. Prevents fluid moving through the intercellular gap and the lateral diffusion of intrinsic membrane proteins between apical and baso lateral domains of the plasma membrane. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| tight junctions | Cell-cell junctions that seal adjacent epithelial cells together, preventing the passage of most dissolved molecules from one side of the epithelial sheet to the other. (alberts et al., molecular biology of the cell, 2nd ed, pg-22) (12 Dec 1998) |
| stick-tight | <botany> Beggar's ticks. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
|---|---|
| adhering junction | <cell biology> A type of junction between cells forming tissues that are subjected to stretching and pulling, such as the skin. This type of junction provides very tight contact between adjacent cells and allows the cells to fuction as a unit. Belt desmosomes are attachment sites that circle the cell, and spot desmosomes are small points of attachment across the cells surface. (15 Jan 1998) |
| amelodental junction | Amelodentinal junction, rarely used terms for dentinoenamel junction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| amnioembryonic junction | The line of amniotic attachment to the periphery of the embryonic disk. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anorectal junction | Transition from rectum to anal canal; corresponds to the perineal flexure, or the level at which the gut perforates the pelvic diaphragm; here the rectal ampulla narrows abruptly into a narrow slip. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior junction line | Radiographic projection of the mediastinal tissue septum between the upper lobes behind the sternum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| A-V junction | Imprecisely defined zone surrounding and including the A-V node and the adjacent atrial and ventricular myocardium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cardioesophageal junction | The abrupt transition from oesophageal mucosa to that of the cardiac portion of stomach, demarcated internally in the living by the z-line, and approximated externally by the cardiac notch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gap junction | <cell biology> A junction between two cells consisting of many pores that allow the passage of molecules up to about 900D. Each pore is formed by an hexagonal array (connexon) of six transmembrane proteins (connexins) in each plasma membrane: when mated together the pores open, allowing communication and the interchange of metabolites between cells. Electrical synapses are gap junctions and metabolic cooperation depends upon the formation of gap junctions. (18 Nov 1997) |
| manubriosternal junction | The angle between the manubrium and the body of the sternum at the manubriosternal junction. Marks the level of the second costal cartilage (rib) for counting ribs or intercostal spaces. Denotes level of aortic arch, bifurcation of trachea, and T4/T5 intervertebral disc. Synonym: angulus sterni, Louis' angle, Ludwig's angle, manubriosternal junction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rectosigmoid junction | <anatomy> The site where the sigmoid colon becomes the rectum; usually takes the form of an acute angle, demarcated externally by a discontinuation of appendices epiploicae, a spreading out of the teniae coli to completely encircle the rectum, and consequently, termination of the sacculations (haustrae) between the teniae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cell junction | <cell biology> Specialised junctions between cells. See: adherens junctions, desmosomes, tight junctions, gap junctions. (26 Mar 1998) |
| cementodentinal junction | <dentistry> The surface at which the cementum and dentin of the root of a tooth are joined. Synonym: dentinocemental junction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cementoenamel junction | <dentistry> The surface at which the enamel of the crown and the cementum of the root of a tooth are joined. See: cervical line. (05 Mar 2000) |
| right splicing junction | Boundary between the right end of an intron and the left end of the adjacent exon. Synonym: acceptor splicing site. (05 Mar 2000) |
Synonyms : Zonula Occludens, Junction, Occluding, Junction, Tight, Junctions, Occluding, Junctions, Tight, Occluden, Zonula, Occludens, Zonula, Occluding Junction, Tight Junction, Zonula Occluden
| tight junction |
1. an intercellular junction at which adjacent plasma membranes are joined tightly together, separated by only 1 to 2 nm; these junctions variably occlude the intercellular space and limit or eliminate the intercellular passage of molecules. 2. zonula occludens.
