T-cadherin structures reveal a novel adhesive binding mechanism
2010
T-cadherin is a non-classical GPI-anchored cadherin. The crystal structures of T-cadherins from different organisms now reveal that the EC1-EC2 regions can form dimers via an interface near the EC1-EC2 calcium binding sites, different from the EC1 strand swapping seen in classical cadherin homophilic interactions.
