CDH18

CDH18 (Cadherin 18) is a Protein Coding gene. Among its related pathways are ERK Signaling and CDK-mediated phosphorylation and removal of Cdc6. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include calcium ion binding. An important paralog of this gene is CDH7.

Cadherin 18

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.
