- Description
- Predicted to enable cell adhesion molecule binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell-cell adhesion. Predicted to act upstream of or within homophilic cell adhesion via plasma membrane adhesion molecules. Predicted to be located in dendrite; postsynaptic membrane; and presynaptic membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane and synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including germ ring; margin; mesoderm; presumptive mesoderm; and retina. Orthologous to human PCDH8 (protocadherin 8).
