DESCRIPTION

Also known as CADH1_HUMAN, CDH1, CDHE, UVO. Cadherins are calcium-dependent cell adhesion proteins (PubMed:11976333). They preferentially interact with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells; cadherins may thus contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types. CDH1 is involved in mechanisms regulating cell-cell adhesions, mobility and proliferation of epithelial cells (PubMed:11976333). Has a potent invasive suppressor role. It is a ligand for integrin alpha-E/beta-7., E-Cad/CTF2 promotes non-amyloidogenic degradation of Abeta precursors. Has a strong inhibitory effect on APP C99 and C83 production., (Microbial infection) Serves as a receptor for Listeria monocytogenes; internalin A (InlA) binds to this protein and promotes uptake of the bacteria. Homodimer; disulfide-linked (PubMed:11856755). Component of an E-cadherin/ catenin adhesion complex composed of at least E-cadherin/CDH1, beta-catenin/CTNNB1 or gamma-catenin/JUP, and potentially alpha-catenin/CTNNA1; the complex is located to adherens junctions (PubMed:16126725, PubMed:7982500). Interacts with the TRPV4 and CTNNB1 complex (By similarity). Interacts with CTNND1 (PubMed:15240885). The stable association of CTNNA1 is controversial as CTNNA1 was shown not to bind to F-actin when assembled in the complex (By similarity). Alternatively, the CTNNA1-containing complex may be linked to F-actin by other proteins such as LIMA1 (By similarity). Interaction with PSEN1, cleaves CDH1 resulting in the disassociation of cadherin-based adherens junctions (CAJs) (PubMed:11226248, PubMed:16126725). Interacts with AJAP1 and DLGAP5 (PubMed:14699157, PubMed:14595118). Interacts with TBC1D2 (PubMed:20116244). Interacts with LIMA1 (PubMed:18093941). Interacts with CAV1. Interacts with PIP5K1C (PubMed:17261850). Interacts with RAB8B (By similarity). Interacts with RAPGEF2 (By similarity). Interacts with DDR1; this stabilizes CDH1 at the cell surface and inhibits its internalization (PubMed:20432435). Interacts with KLRG1 (PubMed:19604491). Forms a ternary complex composed of ADAM10, CADH1 and EPHA4; within the complex, CADH1 is cleaved by ADAM10 which disrupts adherens junctions (By similarity). Interacts with SPEF1 (PubMed:31473225).
