Rtls may stabilize the connections between rosette cells by interacting with the ECM in a manner akin to the lecticans, a family of animal C-type lectins that stabilize cartilage and other connective tissues by cross-linking carbohydrates and proteins in the ECM (Ruoslahti, 1996).
For instance, BamD stabilizes the connection between POTRA-5 and the β-barrel, as well as the POTRA1 2 connection.
This suggests that posterior Hox genes control the timing of ingression by stabilizing the connection between microtubules and the ECM rather than diverting epiblast cells to a neural fate.
Dynamically, the aluminate-silicate chains, calcium ions and functional hydroxyl groups establish the "cages", and strongly prevent the freely diffusion of the interface water molecules, stabilizing the connections between CSH and GO structures.

These favorable interactions stabilize the association between the two proteins.
Hair-cell activity would subsequently stabilize the synaptic connections over a period of several hours.
ERdj4 stabilizes the substrate binding of GRP78/BiP by inhibiting the connection between the NBD and the substrate-binding domain.
A large number of hydrogen bonding interactions in both loops are thought to stabilize the protein by providing a network of connections between the loops and the metal binding sites (Parge et al., 1992).
c, A phosphatidylcholine molecule appears to stabilize the interface between PS1 and PEN-2.
In addition, BamB stabilizes the POTRA2 3 connection, and BamE, together with BamD, stabilizes the POTRA4 5 connection.
