Cadherin Peptide, avian is a calcium-dependent glycoprotein. Cadherin Peptide, avian takes part in homophilic cell-cell adhesion and dose-dependently inhibits bovine brain microvessel endothelial cells (BBMECs) adhesion[1]. | [Biological Activity]
cadherin peptide, avian, (c44h75n17o13), a peptide with the sequence leu-arg-ala-his-ala-val-asp-val-asn-gly-nh2, mw= 1050.2. cadherins (named for "calcium-dependent adhesion") are a class of type-1 transmembrane proteins. they play important roles in cell adhesion, ensuring that cells within tissues are bound together. they are dependent on calcium (ca2+) ions to function. cadherins are synthesized as polypeptides and undergo many post-translational modifications to become the proteins which mediate cell-cell adhesion and recognition. cadherins behave as both receptors and ligands. during development, their behavior assists in properly positioning cells - they are responsible for the separation of the different tissue layers, and for cellular migration. in the very early stages of development, e-cadherin (epithelial cadherin) is most greatly expressed. during the next stage, the development of the neuronal plate, n-cadherin (neural cadherin) is expressed and there is a decrease in e-cadherin. finally, during the development of the notochord and the condensation of somites, e- p- and n-cadherin expression increases. after development, cadherins play a role in maintaining cell and tissue structure, and in cellular movement.figure1 formula of b-interleukin ii (44-56)figure2 the organisation of the cadherin-catenin complex | [References]
