Figure 1 Components of area composita in the heart. Area composita is a mixed-type junctional structure composed of both desmosomal and adherens junctional proteins. Both αE-catenin and αT-catenin are present in the area composita at the cardiac intercalated disc. However, only αT-catenin was shown to interact directly with desmosomal protein PKP2. PKP2: Plakophilin-2; DPK: Desmoplakin; IF: Intermediate filaments.
