The cadherin superfamily comprises a large number of cell surface glycoproteins with one or more cadherin repeats, which are involved in Ca2+-dependent cell-cell adhesion. Classical cadherins contain five extracellular cadherin repeats and a conserved cytoplasmic region that interacts with the actin cytoskeleton via catenins. In addition to cell adhesion, cadherins also mediate morphogenesis, cytoskeletal organization, and cell migration. In addition to the classical cadherins, the cadherin superfamily also includes desmosomal cadherins, protocadherins, 7TM cadherins, FAT family cadherins, and T-cadherin.
Suppressing breast cancer metastasis: The role of hypoxia-induced RhoB expression and activation By Jamshed Arslan, Pharm. D., PhD. The Ras homologous (Rho) GTPase family of signaling molecules has over 20 members, which typically cycle between active (GTP-bound) and inactive (GDP-bound) states. These small GTPa...

Cathepsin B - a lysosomal protease with potential of an important drug target in neurological diseases and cancer Cathepsins are a family of lysosomal proteases (serine, aspartic and cysteine proteases) that acts in conjunction with lipases and nucleases to degrade biological macromolecules in the lysosomes (1). While most cathepsins are ubiquitously expressed... Read full blog post. |
SOX2 - a stem cell transcription factor The SOX gene family encodes a group of highly conserved transcription factors defined by the presence of a conserved high motility group (HMG) DNA-binding domain. They are involved in embryonic development regulation and cell fate determination. Al... Read full blog post. |
Beta-catenin - I am versatile! Beta-catenin is a cytosolic, 88 kDa intracellular protein associated with cell surface cadherin glycoproteins. It is a member of the larger calcium-dependent catenin family that includes alpha-catenin, beta-catenin, and gamma-catenin (also known as pl... Read full blog post. |
Vimentin: Regulating EMT and Cancer Vimentin, a member of the intermediate filament (IF) family, is a protein responsible for maintaining cellular integrity and reducing damage caused by stress. The vimentin protein is ubiquitously expressed in normal mesenchymal cells, and recent resea... Read full blog post. |
Carbonic Anhydrase IX Roles in Tumor Growth, Survival and Invasion Carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) is a membrane-associated carbonic anhydrase, strongly induced by hypoxia. CA IX is overexpressed by several cancer cells from many tumor types, and is a component of the pH regulatory system invoked by these cells to comba... Read full blog post. |
E-Cadherin as a Cancer Biomarker E-cadherin is a calcium-regulated adhesion molecule expressed in most normal epithelial tissues. E-cadherin is also associated with gland formation, stratification, and epithelial polarization, while loss of E-cadherin can cause dedifferentiation and ... Read full blog post. |
E-Cadherin in Cell-Cell Adhesion and Cancer Diagnostics E-Cadherin is a member of the cadherin superfamily and is fundamental player in a wide range of cellular processes such as development, morphology, polarity, migration and tissue integrity. Specifically, E-cadherin is an approximately 100 kDa epitheli... Read full blog post. |
