== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CADH2_MOUSE CADH2_MOUSE] 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. CDH2 may be involved in neuronal recognition mechanism. In hippocampal neurons, may regulate dendritic spine density.<ref>PMID:11433297</ref> <ref>PMID:17988630</ref>
