Transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of freeze-fracture preparation of rat liver showing prominent gap junction. The junction appears as an array of particles on the membrane adjacent to the cytoplasm of the cell and as an array of pits in the overlying membrane of the adjacent cell. Gap junctions are thought to be sites of intercellular communication. Magnification 30, 000x. | |
