| 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 placenta, adult brain, and fetal brain.
