Identification
BMDB Protein ID BMDBP02745
Secondary Accession Numbers None
Name Cadherin-2
Synonyms Not Available
Gene Name CDH2
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in calcium ion binding
Specific Function Calcium-dependent cell adhesion protein; preferentially mediates homotypic cell-cell adhesion by dimerization with a CDH2 chain from another cell. Cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. Acts as a regulator of neural stem cells quiescence by mediating anchorage of neural stem cells to ependymocytes in the adult subependymal zone: upon cleavage by MMP24, CDH2-mediated anchorage is affected, leading to modulate neural stem cell quiescence. CDH2 may be involved in neuronal recognition mechanism. In hippocampal neurons, may regulate dendritic spine density.
