Term Information

Accession: GO:0043296
Ontology: cellular component
Synonyms: exact: apical cell junction complex
Definition: A functional unit located near the cell apex at the points of contact between epithelial cells, which in vertebrates is composed of the tight junction, the zonula adherens, and desmosomes and in invertebrates is composed of the subapical complex (SAC), the zonula adherens and the septate junction. Functions in the regulation of cell polarity, tissue integrity and intercellular adhesion and permeability. [source: GOC:go_curators, PMID:12525486, PMID:15196556]
