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.

Tissue specificity

Mainly expressed in brain. Found in certain nerve cell lines, such as retinoblasts, glioma cells and neuroblasts.

Sequence similarities

Contains 5 cadherin domains.
