Other Information

**Key Characteristics** PCDH17 shares homology with other protocadherins, which are characterized by their ability to form homophilic cell adhesion domains. This domain is essential for the interaction between PCDH17 molecules on adjacent cells, leading to the formation of adherens junctions and the regulation of cell-cell adhesion. PCDH17 is also involved in the regulation of synaptic transmission, where it interacts with other synaptic proteins to modulate the release and uptake of neurotransmitters. **Pathways and Functions** PCDH17 is involved in several key pathways, including: 1. **Homophilic cell adhesion via plasma membrane adhesion molecules**: PCDH17 interacts with other protocadherins to form adherens junctions, which are essential for maintaining tissue structure and regulating cell migration. 2. **Regulation of synaptic transmission**: PCDH17 interacts with other synaptic proteins to modulate the release and uptake of neurotransmitters, leading to the regulation of synaptic plasticity and learning. 3. **Postsynaptic membrane assembly**: PCDH17 is involved in the formation of postsynaptic structures, including the postsynaptic density, which is essential for the regulation of synaptic transmission. 4. **Calcium ion binding**: PCDH17 has been shown to interact with calcium ions, which are essential for the regulation of synaptic transmission and the formation of synaptic structures. **Clinical Significance** PCDH17 has been implicated in several neurological disorders, including: 1. **Epilepsy**: PCDH17 has been shown to be a susceptibility gene for epilepsy, where it is involved in the regulation of synaptic transmission and the formation of seizure foci. 2. **Schizophrenia**: PCDH17 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia, where it is involved in the regulation of synaptic transmission and the formation of abnormal neural circuits. 3. **Autism spectrum disorder**: PCDH17 has been shown to be a susceptibility gene for autism spectrum disorder, where it is involved in the regulation of synaptic transmission and the formation of abnormal neural circuits. In conclusion, PCDH17 is a critical gene involved in cell-cell adhesion and synaptic transmission. Its dysregulation has been implicated in several neurological disorders, highlighting the importance of this gene in maintaining normal neural function. Further research is needed to elucidate the mechanisms by which PCDH17 regulates synaptic transmission and to identify potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of neurological disorders.
