Cdh17 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable beta-catenin binding activity; cell adhesion molecule binding activity; and proton-dependent oligopeptide secondary active transmembrane transporter activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; cell-cell junction organization; and mature B cell differentiation involved in immune response. Located in basolateral plasma membrane. Orthologous to human CDH17 (cadherin 17). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Cdh17 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
