Summary | This gene encodes a member of the cadherin family of calcium-dependent glycoproteins that mediate cell adhesion and regulate many morphogenetic events during development. The encoded preproprotein is further processed to generate a mature protein. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. This gene is located adjacent to a related cadherin gene on chromosome 1. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]. |
