cdh2 - cadherin 2, type 1, N-cadherin (neuronal)

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.
