Tetraspanins co-emerged with multi-cellular organisms during evolution and are typically localized at the cell–cell interface, [corrected] and form tetraspanin-enriched microdomains (TEMs) by associating with each other and other membrane molecules. Tetraspanins affect various biological functions, but how tetraspanins engage in multi-faceted functions at the cellular level is largely unknown. When cells interact, the membrane microextrusions at the cell-cell interfaces form dynamic, digit-like ...[more]
