| Function |
Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins. They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Predominantly expressed in brain. Also found in adult and fetal kidney. Very low levels detected in prostate and fetal lung. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10386616}.
