- Background
- CDH1 (Cadherin 1), also known as ECAD or UVO, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDH1 gene. Cadherin-1 is a classical member of the cadherin superfamily. By Southern analysis of DNA from a panel of mouse-human somatic cell hybrids, Mansouri et al. (1987, 1988) assigned the UVO gene to 16q (16p11-qter) . Frebourg et al. (2006) found that in human embryos CDH1 is highly expressed at 4 and 5 weeks in the frontonasal prominence and at 6 weeks in the lateral and medial nasal prominences, and is therefore expressed during critical stages of lip and palate development. CDH1 is involved in mechanisms regulating cell-cell adhesions, mobility and proliferation of epithelial cells. Has a potent invasive suppressor role. It is a ligand for integrin alpha-E/beta-7.

- 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. CDH1 is involved in mechanisms regulating cell-cell adhesions, mobility and proliferation of epithelial cells. Has a potent invasive suppressor role. It is a ligand for integrin alpha-E/beta-7. .

- Subcellular Location
- Cell junction. Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Endosome. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network. Colocalizes with DLGAP5 at sites of cell-cell contact in intestinal epithelial cells. Anchored to actin microfilaments through association with alpha-, beta- and gamma- catenin. Sequential proteolysis induced by apoptosis or calcium influx, results in translocation from sites of cell-cell contact to the cytoplasm. Colocalizes with RAB11A endosomes during its transport from the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane.
