About CDH6

Cytogenetic location: 5p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 5:31,193,686-31,329,146 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 263 orthologues and 33 paralogues. Broad expression in kidney (RPKM 6.1), gall bladder (RPKM 4.1) and 17 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the cadherin superfamily. Cadherins are membrane glycoproteins that mediate homophilic cell-cell adhesion and play critical roles in cell differentiation and morphogenesis. The encoded protein is a type II cadherin and may play a role in kidney development as well as endometrium and placenta formation. Decreased expression of this gene may be associated with tumor growth and metastasis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011]
