Analysis of the detailed genomic structure of human N-cadherin revealed that the 16-exon gene is more than 72 kb in length and that it consists of a mosaic of exons. Five repeated cadherin domains, a ...

Members of the cadherin superfamily mediate critical interactions in tissue differentiation and organogenesis, including differentiation and maintenance of the intestine. In this study, we report the ...

Cadherin structure Cadherins are named for calcium dependent adhesion. The external domain of a cadherin molecule - the part that is on the outside of a cell - is made up of many repeats of the same ...
