Cadherin 17 Antibody

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 (Cadherin 17, CDH17) may have a role in the morphological organization of liver and intestine. Involved in intestinal peptide transport. [UniProt]
