Summary: Predicted to enable cadherin binding activity and calcium ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; embryonic morphogenesis; and nervous system development. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm and presynaptic membrane. Part of catenin complex. Is expressed in several structures, including germ ring; immature eye; mesoderm; nervous system; and pericardial region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in agenesis of corpus callosum, cardiac, ocular, and genital syndrome; arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy; and arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 14. Orthologous to human CDH2 (cadherin 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
