Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Unique Structure:** CDH6 possesses a distinct cytoplasmic domain, which is different from other cadherins. This unique structure is thought to be responsible for its specific interactions with catenins and other proteins. 2. **Cell-Specific Expression:** CDH6 is expressed in a range of cell types, including epithelial cells, neural crest cells, and neurons. This cell-specific expression pattern suggests that CDH6 plays distinct roles in different tissues and developmental processes. 3. **Homophilic and Heterophilic Interactions:** CDH6 can form homophilic and heterophilic interactions with other cadherins and catenins, which are essential for cell-cell adhesion and signaling. 4. **Calcium-Dependent:** CDH6 is calcium-dependent, which is a characteristic shared with other cadherins. This calcium-dependent mechanism is crucial for the regulation of cell-cell adhesion and signaling. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Adherens Junction Formation:** CDH6 plays a critical role in the formation and maintenance of adherens junctions, which are essential for cell-cell adhesion and tissue integrity. 2. **Cell Signaling:** CDH6 is involved in cell signaling pathways, including the Notch signaling pathway, which is crucial for development and tissue homeostasis. 3. **Cell Morphogenesis:** CDH6 is essential for cell morphogenesis, which is the process of cell shape and organization during development. 4. **Neurological Functions:** CDH6 is expressed in neurons and is involved in the formation of synaptic junctions and the regulation of neuronal signaling. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Cancer Association:** CDH6 has been implicated in various cancers, including breast, lung, and colon cancer. Mutations in the CDH6 gene have been associated with cancer progression and metastasis. 2. **Neurological Disorders:** CDH6 has been linked to neurological disorders, including autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia. CDH6 mutations have been found in individuals with these conditions. 3. **Developmental Delays:** CDH6 has been associated with developmental delays and intellectual disability in individuals with mutations in the CDH6 gene. 4. **Therapeutic Potential:** CDH6 is a potential target for therapeutic interventions in cancer and neurological disorders. Understanding the mechanisms of CDH6 in cell adhesion and signaling can lead to the development of novel therapeutic strategies. In conclusion, the CDH6 gene is a critical component of the cadherin superfamily, playing a vital role in cell-cell adhesion, signaling, and development. Its unique characteristics and functions make it an essential molecule for understanding various diseases and developing novel therapeutic strategies. Further research is needed to fully elucidate the mechanisms of CDH6 and its clinical significance.
