Deskripsi
The slit-diaphragm is a cellular junction that is crucial for blood filtration in the kidney. Kocylowski et al. show that the junction-spanning components are embedded in a protein network for dynamic control of filtration; network disturbance leads to severe filtration defects with proteinuria.
