Abstract excerpt

Uvomorulin (E-cadherin) is a cell adhesive molecule analogous to L-CAM in the chicken. Uvomorulin is important in the process of compaction in eight-cell mouse embryos and plays a role in F9 embryonal carcinoma cell interactions but it is not clear if it mediates aggregation or compaction, the cl...
