Junctional Complex Formation

Junctional Complex Formation is a biochemical process that constitutes the organized assembly of intercellular junctional components, distinguished by the spatiotemporally regulated integration of transmembrane adhesion molecules, cytoskeletal elements, and scaffolding proteins to establish functional cell-cell or cell-matrix adhesion structures in epithelial and endothelial tissues.
