Actomyosin-based contractility acts on cadherin junctions to support tissue integrity and morphogenesis. The actomyosin apparatus of the epithelial zonula adherens (ZA) is built by coordinating junctional actin assembly with Myosin II activation. However, the physical interaction between Myosin and actin filaments that is necessary for contractility can induce actin filament turnover, potentially...
Cadherin adhesion molecules function in close cooperation with the actin cytoskeleton. At the zonula adherens (ZA) of polarized epithelial cells, E-cadherin adhesion induces the cortical recruitment of many key cytoskeletal regulators, which act in a dynamic integrated system to regulate junctional integrity and cell-cell interactions [1–3]. This capacity for the cytoskeleton to support the ZA carries...
