== Function ==


[[Cadherin|Cadherins]] (CDH) are calcium-dependent adhesion proteins.  They contain extracellular CDH repeats (EC1-EC5) which bind calcium ions.  They are encoded by numerous genes numbered CDH1-CDH23.  Some names of CDH indicate their locations: '''E-CDH''' (epithelial tissue), '''VE-CDH''' (vascular epithelial), '''T-CDH''' bound to membrane, '''N-CDH''' (neurons), '''P-CDH''' (placental), '''K-CDH''' (kidney).  The CDH superfamily contains:<br />
*'''Protocadhedrins''' (Prot-CDH) which are similar to CDH but are unique in their cytoplasmic domains.  They are found mainly in the brain at cell-cell contacts.<ref>PMID:11171368</ref> <br />
*'''Desmogleins''' (Des-CDH) and '''desmocollin''' are CDH found in desmosomes.

The adhesive binding of CDH arises from the exchange of β strand of one CDH with the strand of CDH of a neighboring cell termed ''strand swap''. The strand swapping is enhanced by <scene name='41/417481/Cv/5'>2 Trp residues</scene> docking into the hydrophobic pocket of the neighboring CDH molecule. <ref>PMID:16564015</ref>
