INTERCELLULAR ADHESION PROTEINS

这个子项目是利用资源的许多研究子项目之一。 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。对子项目的主要支持 子项目的首席调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括美国国立卫生研究院的其他来源。为子项目列出的总成本可能 表示该子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 不是由NCRR赠款提供给次级项目或次级项目工作人员的直接资金。 我们正在努力对细胞表面黏附受体的黏附复合体进行结构表征，这种复合体有助于将细胞组装成身体的固体组织。一些黏附蛋白有助于定义神经元之间的连接模式，这有助于连接神经系统。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. We are working to structurally characterize the adhesive complexes of cell surface adhesion receptors, which help to assemble cells into the solid tissues of the body. Some adhesion proteins help to define the pattern of connectivity between neurons, and this help "wire" the nervous system.
