Cadherins are a large family of Ca2+-dependent cell-cell adhesion molecules.
All cadherins are single-pass transmembrane proteins with a variable number of 110 amino acid extracellular cadherin (EC) domains.
Classical cadherins contain five EC domains and a conserved cytoplasmic domain.
Based on amino acid alignment, classical cadherins are divided into type I and type II subgroups.
Type I cadherins, including cadherins E (epithelial), N (neural), P (placental), and R (retinal) cadherin differ from type I cadherins in their specific amino acid sequences.
Type II cadherins include human cadherin-5, -6, -8, -11, and –12.
Cadherin 11 (OB-Cadherin) is a marker of the loosely connected and migratory cellular elements of the mesenchyme.
Strong expression of Cadherin 11 has been noted in brain, spinal cord, bone marrow and bone cells, and is regulated in human endometrial glandular epithelial and stromal cells.
A variant cadherin-11 gene (variant form) encodes a truncated protein with an unusual cytoplasmic domain not present in other cadherins.
The variant protein is generated by alternative splicing, utilizing a 179 bp intronic sequence.
Recently, Cadherin-11 mRNA and protein were found to be expressed in most invasive breast cancer cell lines tested but not in non-invasive cell lines, suggesting that cadherin-11 may be a marker for aggressive, invasive tumor subsets.
