Gene information for PCDH17 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID27253
Official gene symbolPCDH17
Full nameprotocadherin 17
Aliases,PCDH68,PCH68,
Gene summaryThis gene belongs to the protocadherin gene family, a subfamily of the cadherin superfamily. The encoded protein contains six extracellular cadherin domains, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail differing from those of the classical cadherins. The encoded protein may play a role in the establishment and function of specific cell-cell connections in the brain. [provided by RefSeq]
