The junction which brings the plasma membranes of adjacent cells into close proximity is called the tight junction.
Tight junctions separate tissue spaces and form a continuous intercellular barrier between epithelial cells necessary to regulate the selective movement of solutes across the epithelium. Tight junctions refer to specialized junctions between two adjacent animal cell membranes, usually leaving no space between them.
