Actin

Actin is a family of globular multi-functional proteins that form microfilaments in the cytoskeleton, and the thin filaments in muscle fibrils.

See VEZT and Actin

Adherens junction

In cell biology, adherens junctions (or zonula adherens, intermediate junction, or "belt desmosome") are protein complexes that occur at cell–cell junctions and cell–matrix junctions in epithelial and endothelial tissues, usually more basal than tight junctions.

See VEZT and Adherens junction

Blastocyst

The blastocyst is a structure formed in the early embryonic development of mammals.

See VEZT and Blastocyst

Cadherin-1

Cadherin-1 or Epithelial cadherin (E-cadherin), (not to be confused with the APC/C activator protein CDH1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDH1 gene.

See VEZT and Cadherin-1

Catenin

Catenins are a family of proteins found in complexes with cadherin cell adhesion molecules of animal cells.

See VEZT and Catenin

Desmoglein

The desmogleins are a family of desmosomal cadherins consisting of proteins DSG1, DSG2, DSG3, and DSG4.

See VEZT and Desmoglein

Endometriosis

Endometriosis is a disease in which cells like those in the endometrium, the layer of tissue that normally covers the inside of the uterus, grow outside the uterus.

See VEZT and Endometriosis

MYO7A

Myosin VIIA is protein that in humans is encoded by the MYO7A gene.

See VEZT and MYO7A

Myosin

Myosins are a superfamily of motor proteins best known for their roles in muscle contraction and in a wide range of other motility processes in eukaryotes.

See VEZT and Myosin

Spermatogenesis

Spermatogenesis is the process by which haploid spermatozoa develop from germ cells in the seminiferous tubules of the testicle.

See VEZT and Spermatogenesis
