[N-cadherin(+) , N-cadherin(-)]
abbr. NCAD (a term with multiple meanings) N-cadherin is a member of the cadherin gene family encode proteins that mediate calcium-ion-dependent adhesion (Takeichi, 1988). In the nomenclature of CD antigens the new designation for this protein is CD325. N-cadherin is known also as Neural cadherin or Cadherin-2 and has been identified originally as the cell adhesion molecule A-CAM, which is localized to the adherens junction. The protein has been referred to also as CDHN [neural calcium-dependent adhesion protein].
N-cadherin has been identified by Grunwald et al (1982) as a 130 kDa protein in the chicken
