Summary Introduction
Cadherins are a type of signaling molecule. These molecules are essential for the formation of adherence junction. Integrins are the chief receptors that are present in animal cells that functions as a transmembrane linker. These molecules bind to the extracellular matrix with the actin cytoskeleton.
