Hemidesmosome
Assymetrical
structures
A plate anchors the basal part of cell to the
basal lamina
This plate contains IFs called keratins or
tonofilaments
Membrane plaque linking hemidesmosome
to basal lamina via anchoring filaments
Contributes to overall stability of epithelia

open pore
One gap junction connexon is made up
of six connexins
The pore is a hydrophilic channel
between two cytoplasms
Plasma membranes come within 2-4nm
