Function | 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. Acts as a regulator of neural stem cells quiescence by mediating anchorage of neural stem cells to ependymocytes in the adult subependymal zone. CDH2 may be involved in neuronal recognition mechanism (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |
Subcellular Location | Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. |
