Other Information

## Summary CDH2 is a cell adhesion molecule that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including cell-cell adhesion, tissue organization, and development. It is a member of the cadherin family of cell adhesion molecules, characterized by a extracellular domain that mediates cell-cell adhesion and a cytoplasmic domain that interacts with various intracellular signaling proteins. ## Key characteristics * **Structure:** Single-pass transmembrane protein with a extracellular domain and a cytoplasmic domain. * **Expression:** Highly expressed in various cell types, including photoreceptor cells, cardiac myocytes, neurons, and epithelial cells. * **Function:** * Acts as a cell adhesion molecule, mediating cell-cell adhesion between various cell types. * Inhibits cell migration and migration by interacting with other cadherins and signaling pathways. * Regulates cell-cell communication and tissue organization. * Plays a role in cell fate determination and differentiation. * Contributes to the formation of epithelial tissues and the maintenance of tissue integrity. ## Pathways and functions * **Adherens junctions interactions:** Cadherin binds to cadherins on neighboring cells, forming cell-cell adhesion complexes. * **Alpha-catenin binding:** Cadherin interacts with alpha-catenin, a key component of adherens junctions, strengthening the cell-cell adhesion complex. * **Beta-catenin binding:** Cadherin also binds to beta-catenin, another cadherin, which is a key component of epithelial junctions. * **Calcium ion binding:** Cadherins are sensitive to calcium ion changes, which can influence their adhesive properties. * **Cell-cell communication:** Cadherins facilitate cell-cell communication by bridging gaps between cells and promoting cell-cell adhesion. * **Cell-cell junction organization:** Cadherins are crucial for the organization and maintenance of tissue junctions, providing structural support and facilitating cell communication. * **Developmental biology:** Cadherins play a vital role in embryonic development, contributing to the formation of epithelial tissues and the establishment of tissue boundaries. * **Gamma-catenin binding:** Cadherins can bind to gamma-catenin, a transmembrane protein that is a key component of the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin. This interaction is involved in tissue remodeling and cell migration. * **Identical protein binding:** Cadherins can bind to other cadherins, forming complex adhesion structures that reinforce cell-cell adhesion. * **Metabolism of proteins:** Cadherins are involved in the metabolism of proteins, regulating the trafficking and degradation of cadherins and other cell adhesion molecules. * **Myogenesis:** Cadherins are expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscle, where they play a role in muscle development and function. * **Post-translational protein modification:** Cadherins can be modified by various post-translational modifications, which can influence their adhesive properties and cell-cell interactions. * **Post-translational protein phosphorylation:** Cadherins are phosphorylated by various kinases, which can regulate their stability, localization, and function. * **Protein binding:** Cadherins can bind to various proteins, including beta-catenin, alpha-catenin, and gamma-catenin. * **Protein kinase binding:** Cadherins are also bound by various protein kinases, which can regulate their activity and signaling pathways. * **Protein phosphatase binding:** Cadherins can bind to protein phosphatases, which can remove phosphate groups from cadherins and regulate their activity. * **Regulation of insulin-like growth factor (igf) transport and uptake by insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (igfbps):** Cadherins are involved in the regulation of insulin-like growth factor (igf) transport and uptake by insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (igfbps). ## Clinical significance CDH2 gene mutations have been linked to various human diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and developmental disorders. Mutations in the CADH2 gene have been associated with the development of epithelial tumors, cardiac arrhythmias, and other cardiovascular diseases. Additionally, mutations in CDH2 have been linked to autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia.
