  1. Nickel Reduces Calcium Dependent Dimerization In Neural Cadherin

    Dukes, Matthew Paul2019

    Cadherins are the primary transmembrane component in adherens junctions, structures that link the actin cytoskeleton in adjacent cells within solid tissues including neurological synapses, epithelium and endothelium. Cell-cell adhesion by cadherins requires the binding of calcium ions to specific …

  2. Biophysical Characterization Of A Proline Mutant Of Neural Cadherin

    Dykes, Keshia S.2019

    Cadherins are calcium dependent glycoproteins whose homophilic interactions mediate cell-cell adhesion in solid tissues. They are comprised of an extracellular region, a transmembrane region and a cytoplasmic region. The extracellular region plays a critical role in cadherin-mediated cell adhesion, …

  3. The Impact of pH on the Structure and Function of Neural Cadherin

    Jungles, Jared Michael2020

    Neural (N-) cadherin is a transmembrane protein within adherens junctions that mediates cell-cell adhesion. It has 5 modular extracellular domains (EC1-EC5) that bind 3 calcium ions between each of the modules. Calcium binding is required for dimerization. N-cadherin is involved in diverse …

    Michele Lynn MarquetteThe University of Texas Medical Branch2007

    … fusion was inhibited by exposure to soluble anti-Neural-cadherin antibody, but this treatment increased MHC levels assessed using immunohistochemistry.\r\nDuring early RCCS culture, myoblasts exhibited numerous cytoplasmic protrusions (podia). Microscopic examination of cells cultured in RCCS and …

  6. Cadherin recognition and specificity

    Chien, Yuan-HungUniversity of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2010

    Cadherins are calcium dependent cell adhesion molecules. The interaction between cadherin molecules is important in establishing cell polarity, tissue identity and tissue boundary. This study focused on the mechanism of cadherin mediated cell-cell interaction and binding specificity. First, the …

    Hagge, Deanna AlisaBiological Sciences2022

    … leprae infection. Schwann cells, the neural target of M. leprae, have a central role in leprosy histopathology including axonotrophy, altered myelin architecture and demyelination. The mechanisms of nerve damage have not been fully elucidated but appear to be the direct result of M. …
