  1. ncbi Localisation of tight junction protein cingulin is temporally and spatially regulated during early mouse development
    T P Fleming
    Department of Biology, University of Southampton, UK
    Development 117:1135-44. 1993
    ..Collectively, our results indicate that (i) cingulin from nonjunctional sites does not contribute to tight junction assembly and (ii) the molecular maturation of the junction appears to occur progressively over at least two cell cycles...
  2. ncbi Tight junction protein cingulin is expressed by maternal and embryonic genomes during early mouse development
    Q Javed
    Department of Biology, University of Southampton, UK
    Development 117:1145-51. 1993
    ..Taken together, the results suggest that (i) cingulin may have a role during oogenesis and (ii) cell-cell contact patterns regulate cingulin biosynthesis during early morphogenesis, contributing to lineage-specific epithelial maturation...

    B Sheth
    Division of Cell Sciences, School of Biological Sciences, University of Southampton, Bassett Crescent East, SO16 7PX, Southampton, UK
    Mech Dev 97:93-104. 2000
    ..Moreover, we propose a role for rab13 in the specification of the AJC site and the formation and segregation of the TJ...

    Saadia A Karim
    Applied Neurobiology Group, Institute of Comparative Medicine, Veterinary School, United Kingdom
    Genomics 83:225-30. 2004
    ..Accordingly, our findings both map the area surrounding the hsh mutation and present important corrections to the current maps in an area rich in genes related to the nervous system...
  5. ncbi JACOP, a novel plaque protein localizing at the apical junctional complex with sequence similarity to cingulin
    Hiroe Ohnishi
    Department of Cell Biology, Kyoto University Faculty of Medicine, Yoshida Konoe, Sakyo ku, Kyoto 606 8501, Japan
    J Biol Chem 279:46014-22. 2004
    ..These findings suggest that JACOP is involved in anchoring the apical junctional complex, especially TJs, to actin-based cytoskeletons...
  6. ncbi Disruption of the cingulin gene does not prevent tight junction formation but alters gene expression
    Laurent Guillemot
    Department of Molecular Biology, University of Geneva, 30 Quai Ernest Ansermet, 1211 Geneve 4, Switzerland
    J Cell Sci 117:5245-56. 2004
    ..Thus, lack of junctional cingulin does not prevent tight-junction formation, but gene expression and tight junction protein levels are altered by the cingulin mutation...
