Definition (free text, please give PubMed ID)**Myotendinous junction (MTJ) is a part of the myotendinous unit, which connects muscle and tendon, and transmits forces between them.

Comment: This term in needed to describe the tissue used in single cell experiments for the human cell atlas. I am requesting it with the parent term of NTR for semitendinosus tendon because that is the tissue we need a term for, but the myotendinous junction is a structure that could have many different tendon parent terms.
