In the cell, focal adhesions are structures containing several proteins that mechanically hyperlink cytoskeletal structures with the extracellular matrix. They are dynamic, with proteins bringing and leaving with signals with regards to the cell cycle, cell motility, and much more pretty much continuously. Focal adhesions serve as anchors and as a signaling hub at cellular locations where integrins bind molecules and where membrane clustering events take place. Mucins are a group of proteins located in animal epithelial tissue that have quite a few glycosyl residues on them and commonly are of higher molecular weight . They are gel-like in their...
