Cancer Protein Description

This report provides a detailed description of a selected cancer protein with information collected from various sources, including UniProt, the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute’s Catalogue of Somatic Mutations in Cancer (COSMIC), and the Atlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology.


Protein Name: CDH10
Gene Name: CDH10
Protein Full Name: Cadherin-10
Alias: CAD10; Cadherin 10, type 2; Cadherin-10; T2-cadherin
Mass (Da): 88451
Number AA: 788
UniProt ID: Q9Y6N8
Locus ID: 1008
COSMIC ID: CDH10
Gene location on chromosome: 5p14.2-p14.1
Cancer protein type: UNCLEAR
Effect of cancer mutation on protein: UNCLEAR
Effect of active protein on cancer: UNCLEAR
Number of cancer specimens: 19904
Percent of cancer specimens with mutations: 2.51
Normal role description: CDH10 encodes for an integral membrane protein that mediates calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion,by preferentially interacting with themselves in a homophilic manner in connecting cells, and may therefore contribute to the sorting of heterogeneous cell types.
