GO:0060074 synapse maturation biological_process The process that organizes a synapse so that it attains its fully functional state. Synaptic maturation plays a critical role in the establishment of effective synaptic connections in early development. [GOC:dph, GOC:ef]
GO:0009897 external side of plasma membrane cellular_component The leaflet of the plasma membrane that faces away from the cytoplasm and any proteins embedded or anchored in it or attached to its surface. [GOC:dos, GOC:tb]
GO:0042734 presynaptic membrane cellular_component A specialized area of membrane of the axon terminal that faces the plasma membrane of the neuron or muscle fiber with which the axon terminal establishes a synaptic junction; many synaptic junctions exhibit structural presynaptic characteristics, such as conical, electron-dense internal protrusions, that distinguish it from the remainder of the axon plasma membrane. [GOC:jl, ISBN:0815316194]
GO:0045211 postsynaptic membrane cellular_component A specialized area of membrane facing the presynaptic membrane on the tip of the nerve ending and separated from it by a minute cleft (the synaptic cleft). Neurotransmitters cross the synaptic cleft and transmit the signal to the postsynaptic membrane. [ISBN:0198506732]
GO:0060077 inhibitory synapse cellular_component A synapse in which an action potential in the presynaptic cell reduces the probability of an action potential occurring in the postsynaptic cell. [GOC:dph, GOC:ef]
GO:0007156 homophilic cell adhesion via plasma membrane adhesion molecules biological_process The attachment of a plasma membrane adhesion molecule in one cell to an identical molecule in an adjacent cell. [ISBN:0198506732]
GO:0007157 heterophilic cell-cell adhesion via plasma membrane cell adhesion molecules biological_process The attachment of an adhesion molecule in one cell to a nonidentical adhesion molecule in an adjacent cell. [ISBN:0198506732]
GO:0005912 adherens junction cellular_component A cell-cell junction composed of the epithelial cadherin-catenin complex. The epithelial cadherins, or E-cadherins, of each interacting cell extend through the plasma membrane into the extracellular space and bind to each other. The E-cadherins bind to catenins on the cytoplasmic side of the membrane, where the E-cadherin-catenin complex binds to cytoskeletal components and regulatory and signaling molecules.
