Abstract excerpt
Epithelial (E)-cadherin plays a critical role in developing a normal epithelial phenotype but neural (N)-cadherin can disrupt epithelial shape, at least in carcinoma-derived cells. Here the normal epithelial cell line MDCK was used to select for a trypsin-sensitive (TS-MDCK) subpopulation that expresses low levels of endogenous N-cadherin. Similar amounts of E-cadherin and all catenins are found in both TS-MDCK...
