    Due to a new reconstitution system of zonula occludens (zTJ) by expressing specific claudin species, this study found that each of claudin-7, -14, and -19 could singly reconstitute zTJ, but with distinct characteristics in morphology. The molecular dynamics is one important factor for this reconstitution, as revealed by FRAP analysis
