CDH1
Molecular classification
Cadherins, Cell surface glycoprotein
01

Overview

Cadherin-1 (CDH1), also known as E-cadherin, is a calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion glycoprotein primarily expressed in epithelial tissues. It is essential for maintaining proper cell-cell adhesion, tissue architecture, and cellular polarity. E-cadherin acts as a tumor suppressor, and its loss or mutation promotes cancer metastasis. It mediates homophilic interactions, crucial for epithelial integrity and suppressing invasion/metastasis. Interactions with catenins like p120 are essential for cell junction stability and signaling.
