| description | Cadherins are transmembrane proteins that mediate cell-cell adhesion in animals []. Cadherin-16 (CDH16) or kidney-specific (Kps) cadherin was first described as a kidney-specific adhesion molecule []and thereafter also found expressed in the thyroid gland. CDH16 colocalises with CDH1/E-cadherin on the basolateral plasma membrane of thyrocytes, and might play a role during thyroid development []. |
