| Preferred Name | desmosome |
| Definitions |
A cell-cell junction in which - on the cytoplasmic surface of each interacting plasma membrane is a dense plaque composed of a mixture of intracellular anchor proteins - a bundle of keratin intermediate filaments is attached to the surface of each plaque - transmembrane adhesion proteins of the cadherin family bind to the plaques and interact through their extracellular domains to hold the adjacent membranes together by a Ca2+-dependent mechanism.
