Cdh19 - cadherin 19, type 2

Predicted to enable cadherin binding activity and calcium ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion via plasma membrane cell adhesion molecules; cell morphogenesis; and cell-cell junction organization. Predicted to be part of catenin complex. Predicted to be active in adherens junction. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; ear; genitourinary system; integumental system; and nervous system. Orthologous to human CDH19 (cadherin 19).
