Name | PCDH12 (HGNC:8657) |
---|---|
Function | Cellular adhesion molecule that may play an important role in cell-cell interactions at interendothelial junctions (By similarity). Acts as a regulator of cell migration, probably via increasing cell- cell adhesion (PubMed:21402705). Promotes homotypic calcium-dependent aggregation and adhesion and clusters at intercellular junctions (By similarity). Unable to bind to catenins, weakly associates with the cytoskeleton (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | [Protocadherin-12]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell junction {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O55134} |
Tissue Location | Expressed in highly vascularized tissues including the heart and placenta, but most tissues contain a low level of expression (PubMed:11063261). Prominent expression in the spleen (PubMed:11063261). Present in villous and extravillous trophoblast (at protein level) (PubMed:21402705). |
