The Membrane-proximal Region of the E-Cadherin Cytoplasmic Domain Prevents Dimerization and Negatively Regulates Adhesion Activity

Cadherins are transmembrane glycoproteins involved in Ca(2+)-dependent cell–cell adhesion. Deletion of the COOH-terminal residues of the E-cadherin cytoplasmic domain has been shown to abolish its cell adhesive activity, which has been ascribed to the failure of the deletion mutants to associate wit...
