Cell adhesion: Sizing up a sticky situation

Research output: Contribution to journal › Short survey › peer-review

Abstract

Cadherins, the principal cell adhesion molecules in animal tissues, come in clusters. A combination of super-resolution microscopy and modeling now reveals the sizes of these clusters and gives clues to how they are assembled.
