Protocadherin-24 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PCDH24 gene.
This gene is a member of the protocadherin family, which represents a subset of the larger cadherin superfamily. The members of the protocadherin family encode non-classical cadherins that function as calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion molecules. The kidney-expressed gene product has a signal peptide, nine cadherin repeat domains and a unique cytoplasmic region. This protocadherin represents a new candidate for tumor suppression.
Interactions
PCLKC has been shown to interact with MAST2.
