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; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in many tissues, with the exception of uterus.
