Recombinant Human E Cadherin protein

기능

Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins (PubMed : 11976333). They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. CDH1 is involved in mechanisms regulating cell-cell adhesions, mobility and proliferation of epithelial cells (PubMed : 11976333). Promotes organization of radial actin fiber structure and cellular response to contractile forces, via its interaction with AMOTL2 which facilitates anchoring of radial actin fibers to CDH1 junction complexes at the cell membrane (By similarity). Plays a role in the early stages of desmosome cell-cell junction formation via facilitating the recruitment of DSG2 and DSP to desmosome plaques (PubMed : 29999492). Has a potent invasive suppressor role. It is a ligand for integrin alpha-E/beta-7.. E-Cad/CTF2 promotes non-amyloidogenic degradation of Abeta precursors. Has a strong inhibitory effect on APP C99 and C83 production.. (Microbial infection) Serves as a receptor for Listeria monocytogenes; internalin A (InlA) binds to this protein and promotes uptake of the bacteria.

Post-translational modifications

During apoptosis or with calcium influx, cleaved by a membrane-bound metalloproteinase (ADAM10), PS1/gamma-secretase and caspase-3 (PubMed:10597309, PubMed:11076937, PubMed:11953314). Processing by the metalloproteinase, induced by calcium influx, causes disruption of cell-cell adhesion and the subsequent release of beta-catenin into the cytoplasm (PubMed:10597309). The residual membrane-tethered cleavage product is rapidly degraded via an intracellular proteolytic pathway (PubMed:10597309). Cleavage by caspase-3 releases the cytoplasmic tail resulting in disintegration of the actin microfilament system (PubMed:11076937). The gamma-secretase-mediated cleavage promotes disassembly of adherens junctions (PubMed:11953314). During development of the cochlear organ of Corti, cleavage by ADAM10 at adherens junctions promotes pillar cell separation (By similarity).. N-glycosylation at Asn-637 is essential for expression, folding and trafficking. Addition of bisecting N-acetylglucosamine by MGAT3 modulates its cell membrane location (PubMed:19403558).. Ubiquitinated by a SCF complex containing SKP2, which requires prior phosphorylation by CK1/CSNK1A1. Ubiquitinated by CBLL1/HAKAI, requires prior phosphorylation at Tyr-754.. O-glycosylated. O-manosylated by TMTC1, TMTC2, TMTC3 or TMTC4. Thr-285 and Thr-509 are O-mannosylated by TMTC2 or TMTC4 but not TMTC1 or TMTC3.. (Microbial infection) Cleaved by S.pyogenes SpeB protease; leading to its degradation (PubMed:23532847). Degradation by SpeB promotes bacterial translocation across the host epithelial barrier (PubMed:23532847).
