Identification of three human type-II classic cadherins and frequent heterophilic interactions between different subclasses of type-II classic cadherins

We identified three novel human type-II classic cadherins, cadherin-7, -9 and -10, by cDNA cloning and sequencing, and confirmed that they interact with catenins and function in cell-cell adhesion as do other classic cadherins. Cell-cell binding activities of the eight human type-II classic cadherin...
