During cell adhesion, the extracellular domain binds to another cell adhesion molecule. In response, the transmembrane region rearranges the structure of the intracellular domain—a process ...

It allowed the team to continuously monitor the complete cell adhesion process, from initiating the bonding with the substrate to forming the permanent attachment (Fig.2).

Konstanz researchers identify an enzyme that plays a role in the migration of cells in our body—not only during normal tissue ...

Cell adhesion is critical in tissue engineering and cell culture. In their native environment, cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) bind to the extracellular matrix and nearby cells to offer structural ...

Konstanz researchers identify an enzyme that plays a role in the migration of cells in our body - not only during normal tissue formation and wound healing, but also when tumor cells metastasize. This ...
