Gap junctions

... have a structural role in the cell wall of plants (cellulose) and fungi (poly-N-acetylglucosamine), they are important for cell adhesion (in cell junctions), they are important in the immune system (a lot of antigens are actually sugar molecules) etc.

Now, what you are missing is that there is a very elaborate enzyme machinery working in this process. ...

... of capillaries in the brain are different to those found in peripheral tissues in various ways: 1. Brain endothelial cells are joined by tight junctions of high electrical resistance providing an effective barrier against molecules. 2. In peripheral endothelial cells there is good transcellular ...
