General annotation (Comments)

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.

Domain

Three calcium ions are usually bound at the interface of each cadherin domain and rigidify the connections, imparting a strong curvature to the full-length ectodomain By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Contains 5 cadherin domains.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: O54800-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: O54800-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     514-532: IQTVSAMDKDDPKNGHFFL → NISMLLILNMFVYNCFLVN
     533-799: Missing.
