Gene information for CDHR5 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID53841
Official gene symbolCDHR5
Full namecadherin-related family member 5
Aliases,FLJ20219,MU-PCDH,MUCDHL,MUPCDH,
Gene summaryThis gene is a novel mucin-like gene that is a member of the cadherin superfamily. While encoding nonpolymorphic tandem repeats rich in proline, serine and threonine similar to mucin proteins, the gene also contains sequence encoding calcium-binding motifs found in all cadherins. The role of the hybrid extracellular region and the specific function of this protein have not yet been determined. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq]
