Gene name

DCHS1 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

Description

Dachsous cadherin-related 1 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

This gene is a member of the cadherin superfamily whose members encode calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion molecules. The encoded protein has a signal peptide, 27 cadherin repeat domains and a unique cytoplasmic region. This particular cadherin family member is expressed in fibroblasts but not in melanocytes or keratinocytes. The cell-cell adhesion of fibroblasts is thought to be necessary for wound healing.
