| GO:0005925 | focal adhesion | cellular_component | A cell-substrate junction that anchors the cell to the extracellular matrix and that forms a point of termination of actin filaments. In insects focal adhesion has also been referred to as hemi-adherens junction (HAJ). [GOC:aruk, GOC:bc, ISBN:0124325653, ISBN:0815316208, PMID:10419689, PMID:12191915, PMID:15246682, PMID:1643657, PMID:16805308, PMID:19197329, PMID:23033047, PMID:26923917, PMID:28796323, PMID:8314002] |
| GO:0015629 | actin cytoskeleton | cellular_component | The part of the cytoskeleton (the internal framework of a cell) composed of actin and associated proteins. Includes actin cytoskeleton-associated complexes. [GOC:jl, ISBN:0395825172, ISBN:0815316194] |
| GO:0003779 | actin binding | molecular_function | Binding to monomeric or multimeric forms of actin, including actin filaments. [GOC:clt] |
| GO:0005856 | cytoskeleton | cellular_component | Any of the various filamentous elements that form the internal framework of cells, and typically remain after treatment of the cells with mild detergent to remove membrane constituents and soluble components of the cytoplasm. The term embraces intermediate filaments, microfilaments, microtubules, the microtrabecular lattice, and other structures characterized by a polymeric filamentous nature and long-range order within the cell. The various elements of the cytoskeleton not only serve in the maintenance of cellular shape but also have roles in other cellular functions, including cellular movement, cell division, endocytosis, and movement of organelles.

| GO:0050839 | cell adhesion molecule binding | molecular_function | Binding to a cell adhesion molecule. [GOC:ai] |
| GO:0005829 | cytosol | cellular_component | The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes. [GOC:hjd, GOC:jl] |
| GO:0005488 | binding | molecular_function | The selective, non-covalent, often stoichiometric, interaction of a molecule with one or more specific sites on another molecule. [GOC:ceb, GOC:mah, ISBN:0198506732] |
| GO:0031032 | actomyosin structure organization | biological_process | A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cytoskeletal structures containing both actin and myosin or paramyosin. The myosin may be organized into filaments. [GOC:dph, GOC:jl, GOC:mah] |
| GO:0030855 | epithelial cell differentiation | biological_process | The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of an epithelial cell, any of the cells making up an epithelium. [GOC:ecd, PMID:11839751] |
| GO:0098609 | cell-cell adhesion | biological_process | The attachment of one cell to another cell via adhesion molecules. [GOC:dos] |
| GO:0005516 | calmodulin binding | molecular_function | Binding to calmodulin, a calcium-binding protein with many roles, both in the calcium-bound and calcium-free states. [GOC:krc] |
| GO:0005912 | adherens junction | cellular_component | A cell-cell junction composed of the epithelial cadherin-catenin complex. The epithelial cadherins, or E-cadherins, of each interacting cell extend through the plasma membrane into the extracellular space and bind to each other. The E-cadherins bind to catenins on the cytoplasmic side of the membrane, where the E-cadherin-catenin complex binds to cytoskeletal components and regulatory and signaling molecules.

| GO:0045296 | cadherin binding | molecular_function | Binding to cadherin, a type I membrane protein involved in cell adhesion. [GOC:bf] |
| GO:0005515 | protein binding | molecular_function | Binding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators] |
