focal adhesions

Preferred Label : focal adhesions;

MeSH definition : An anchoring junction of the cell to a non-cellular substrate. It is composed of a specialized area of the plasma membrane where bundles of the ACTIN CYTOSKELETON terminate and attach to the transmembrane linkers, INTEGRINS, which in turn attach through their extracellular domains to EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX PROTEINS.;

MeSH synonym : plaques, adhesion; adhesions, focal; junctions, cell-matrix adherens; focal contacts; cell matrix adherens junctions; adhesion, focal; focal adhesion; cell-matrix adherens junctions; adherens junction, cell-matrix; adherens junctions, cell-matrix; cell-matrix adherens junction; junction, cell-matrix adherens; contact, focal; contacts, focal; focal contact; adhesion plaques; adhesion plaque; plaque, adhesion;
