Atlantic City is connected to other cities in several ways. New Jersey Transit's Atlantic City Rail Terminal at the Atlantic City Convention Center provides service from 30th Street Station in Philadelphia through several smaller South Jersey communities via the Atlantic City Line.
Epithelial cells are held together by strong anchoring (zonula adherens) junctions. The adherens junction lies below the tight junction (occluding junction). In the gap (about 15-20nm) between the two cells, there is a protein called cadherin-a cell membrane glycoprotein.(The type of cadherin found here is E-cadherin). occluding junctions (zonula occludens or tight junctions). 2  adhering junctions (zonula adherens). 3  desmosomes (macula adherens). 4  There are also ' hemidesmosomes ' that lie on the basal membrane, to help stick the cells to the underlying basal lamina.
Some of the transmembrane glycoproteins are cadherins. Adherens junctions called focal contacts can join a cell to the ECM, primarily through fibronectin receptors. Tight junctions leave no space between plasma membranes of adjacent cells to prevent the movement of molecules across cell layers.he carbohydrate groups of N-CAMs and caherins determine the strength and specificity of cell-cell recognition and adhesion. N-CAMs have repeating chains of negatively charged sialic acid which changes during development. Vesicles with N-CAMs having little sialic acid bind tighter than those with large amounts.
