Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

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. Cadherin-24 mediate strong cell-cell adhesion. {ECO:0000269PubMed:12734196}.

Subcellular Localization

Cell membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
