Background
This gene is a novel mucin-like gene that is a member of the cadherin superfamily. While encoding nonpolymorphic tandem repeats rich in proline, serine and threonine similar to mucin proteins, the gene also contains sequence encoding calcium-binding motifs found in all cadherins. The role of the hybrid extracellular region and the specific function of this protein have not yet been determined. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described.,CDHR5,MLPCDH,MU-PCDH,MUCDHL,MUPCDH,Signal Transduction,Cell Biology & Developmental Biology,Cell Adhesion,Cadherins,Cytoskeleton,CDHR5
