Promoter Choice Determines Splice Site Selection in Protocadherin α and γ Pre-mRNA Splicing (2002, background): “Neuronal mouse brain differs from that of classic neuronal type I diversity has also been characterized extensively in the cadherins and some nonclustered protocadherins (Nollet et al., 2000).”
Role of Receptors in Bacillus thuringiensis Crystal Toxin Activity (2007, background): “Classical cadherins have 5 cadherin repeats (4, 134) but as many as 34 repeats have been reported (34).”
Transcriptional regulation of cell polarity in EMT and cancer (2008, background): “Adherens junctions are mediated by Ca2þ -dependent homophilic interactions of cadherins, single-span membrane proteins with more than 100 members in the vertebrate gene family grouped into six subfamilies (Nollet et al., 2000).”
Adherens junction: molecular architecture and regulation. (2009, positive): “These include desmosomal cadherins (Wheeler et al. 1991; Buxton and Magee 1992), protocadherins (Redies et al. 2005; Morishita and Yagi 2007), Fat and Dachsous cadherins (Saburi and McNeill 2005; Tanoue and Takeichi 2005), and Flamingo/Celsr (Takeichi 2007) (see McNeill et al. 2009).”
Gene expression pattern Developmental expression profiles of Celsr (Flamingo) genes in the mouse (2002, background): “Celsr, also called Flamingo (Fmi) genes encode proteins of the cadherin superfamily ( Nollet et al., 2000; Redies, 2000; Takeichi et al., 2000; Tepass et al., 2000).”
Cadherins in development: cell adhesion, sorting, and tissue morphogenesis. (2006, background): “Subsequently, >100 family members have been identified with diverse protein structures, but all with characteristic extracellular cadherin repeats (ECs) (Nollet et al. 2000).”
Marine biotoxins in shellfish - okadaic acid and analogues 1 Scientific Opinion of the Panel on Contaminants in the Food chain (2008, background): “Because E-cadherin is the protein responsible for cell-cell adhesion of epithelial cells (Nollet et al., 2000), the destruction of the cell pool of E-cadherin induced by OA intestinal and other epithelial cells (Malaguti and Rossini, 2002; Ronzitti et al.”
