    text
  • cell-substrate junction
  • focal adhesion
  • basic FUNCTION
  • may be involved in cell migration, cartilage development and in linking signal transduction pathways to the cytoskeleton
  • required for the maintenance of normal renal function
  • thought to act as links between the extracellular matrix and the cytoskeleton, and thereby mediate signaling for cell shape and motility
  • large intracellular proteins believed to link the extracellular matrix to the cytoskeleton via integrins
  • distinct differences in the cellular expression of TNS1, TENC1, and TNS3, suggesting that they may be able to function independently of each other in the kidney and the small intestine
  • is a focal adhesion molecule that links the actin cytoskeleton to integrins and forms signaling complexes through its multiple binding domains
  • is a key component of specialized cellular adhesions (fibrillar adhesions) that bind to extracellular fibronectin fibrils
  • plays an essential role in TGFB1-induced myofibroblast differentiation and myofibroblast-mediated formation of extracellular fibronectin and collagen matrix
