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.

Cadherin 16 also known as Ksp-cadherin is a calcium-dependent cell adhesion protein. It plays a role in mediating homophilic cell-cell adhesion facilitating the binding between identical cadherins on neighboring cells. The mass of cadherin 16 is approximately 92 kDa. This protein is mainly expressed in the kidney specifically in the distal convoluted tubules and collecting ducts where it is localized to the basolateral membrane of tubular epithelial cells.
Cadherin 16 contributes to cell sorting and tissue morphogenesis. It does not operate as part of a multi-protein complex but interacts with the actin cytoskeleton through catenins like β-catenin to maintain cell adhesion and tissue integrity. The particular expression pattern of cadherin 16 suggests that it has a role in maintaining the structural organization of renal tissues and possibly influences renal tubular epithelial homeostasis.
Cadherin 16 participates in cell signaling pathways essential for cell adhesion and tissue architecture. Specifically it engages in the Wnt signaling pathway where it coordinates with proteins like β-catenin indicating its indirect role in signal transduction that may affect gene transcription regarding cell growth and differentiation. Another key interaction for cadherin 16 is with integrins which are pivotal in mediating attachments between the extracellular matrix and the cell.
Cadherin 16 is linked to renal-related conditions such as renal cell carcinoma and polycystic kidney disease. Abnormal expression or dysfunction of cadherin 16 could disrupt cell adhesion promoting renal cell carcinoma by facilitating cell detachment and metastatic progression. Additionally it connects with proteins like E-cadherin which are involved in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) a process often activated in cancer development and progression.
