About PCDH18

Cytogenetic location: 4q28.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 4:137,518,918-137,532,494 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 274 orthologues and 61 paralogues. Broad expression in placenta (RPKM 18.1), endometrium (RPKM 17.7) and 21 other tissues.

Summary

This gene belongs to the protocadherin gene family, a subfamily of the cadherin superfamily. This gene encodes a protein which contains 6 extracellular cadherin domains, a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic tail differing from those of the classical Cadherins. Although its specific function is undetermined, the cadherin-related neuronal receptor is thought to play a role in the establishment and function of specific cell-cell connections in the brain.
