Biological function summary
This cadherin protein is important for maintaining the integrity of epithelial layers in the gastrointestinal tract. It contributes to the formation of adherens junctions which are necessary for the maintenance of tissue architecture and cellular communication. As part of a larger protein complex in adherens junctions it interacts with cytoskeletal elements to help stabilize cell structures. This mechanical support ensures that cells remain tightly adhered under various physiological conditions.
Pathways
LI Cadherin is involved in pathways that govern cell adhesion and signal transduction. It participates in the Wnt signaling pathway which is vital for cell proliferation and differentiation. Moreover it interacts with E-cadherin and β-catenin within the Wnt pathway aiding in the regulation of gene expression and cellular morphology. These interactions are important for maintaining normal cell behavior and preventing unwanted cell proliferation.

General info
Function
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. LI-cadherin may have a role in the morphological organization of liver and intestine. Involved in intestinal peptide transport.
