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. M-cadherin is part of the myogenic program and may provide a trigger for terminal muscle differentiation.Shibata T., J. Biol. Chem. 272:5236-5240(1997).The MGC Project Team, Genome Res. 14:2121-2127(2004).
