Accession:GO:0120001 term browser browse the term
Definition:A scallop-shaped plaque, also referred to as an asymmetric unit membrane (AUM), found in the apical plasma membrane of urothelial superficial (umbrella) cells which form a a barrier to the passage of water and soluble toxic compounds found in urine. The plaques are thickened regions of membrane composed of uroplakin transmembrane proteins which form a crystalline array.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: asymmetric unit membrane
 related_synonym: AUM
