Model generated from a tomogram of mouse rod photoreceptor OS from Fig. 2. Yellow represents the IS plasma membrane, green the developing discs, purple the mature discs, and red the junctions observed between the IS and OS plasma membrane.

Rod disc renewal occurs by evagination of the ciliary plasma membrane that makes cadherin-based contacts with the inner segment
