Peptide sequence around aa.800~804(A-I-K-P-V) derived from Human N-Cadherin.
Alternative Synonym:
CDH2|| CDCN|| NCAD
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. CDH2 may be involved in neuronal recognition mechanism. In hippocampal neurons, may regulate dendritic spine density
