Cadherins in maternal-foetal interactions: red queen with a green beard?
(East Carolina University, 2005-03-22)Cadherins are homophilic cell surface adhesion proteins, some of which mediate interactions between maternal and foetal tissues during mammalian pregnancy. David Haig suggested that these proteins may exhibit ‘green-beard ... -
E-Cadherin negatively modulates delta-catenin-induced morphological changes and RhoA activity reduction by competing with p190RhoGEF for delta-catenin
(East Carolina University, 2008-12-12)δ-Catenin is a member of the p120-catenin subfamily of armadillo proteins. Here, we describe distinctive features of δ-catenin localization and its association with E-cadherin in HEK293 epithelial cells. In HEK293 cells ... -
Gamma Protocadherin Expression in the Embryonic Chick Nervous System
(East Carolina University, 2007)Protocadherin gamma (pcdh-gamma) family expression was examined in the embryonic chick central nervous system by in situ hybridization. Transcripts were visualized in discrete regions of fore-, mid-, and hindbrain at stages ...
