Protein Summary
Cellular adhesion molecule that may play an important role in cell-cell interactions at interendothelial junctions (By similarity). Acts as a regulator of cell migration, probably via increasing cell-cell adhesion (PubMed:21402705). Promotes homotypic calcium-dependent aggregation and adhesion and clusters at intercellular junctions (By similarity). Unable to bind to catenins, weakly associates with the cytoskeleton (By similarity). This gene belongs to the protocadherin gene family, a subfamily of the cadherin superfamily. The encoded protein consists of an extracellular domain containing 6 cadherin repeats, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic tail that differs from those of the classical cadherins. The gene localizes to the region on chromosome 5 where the protocadherin gene clusters reside. The exon organization of this transcript is similar to that of the gene cluster transcripts, notably the first large exon, but no significant sequence homology exists. The function of this c ...more
