Pcdh12 - protocadherin 12 Gene

Also Known as Pcdh14; VE-cad-2

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 53601

Summary

Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion via plasma membrane cell adhesion molecules; glycogen metabolic process; and homophilic cell adhesion via plasma membrane adhesion molecules. Located in cell-cell junction. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; extraembryonic component; heart; placenta; and retina. Orthologous to human PCDH12 (protocadherin 12). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
