VE-Cadherin (Cadherin-5, Vascular endothelial-cadherin, 7B4 antigen, CD144 antigen)

VE-cadherin (about 130 kDa) belongs to the Cadherin adhesion molecules responsible for cellular interactions. VE-cadherin gene encodes a Ca2+-dependent cell adhesion molecule required for the organization of interendothelial junctions. This gene is expressed in endothelial cells.
