Gene namePCDHB8
Protein nameProtocadherin beta-8 (PCDH-beta-8) (Protocadherin-3I)
SynonymsPCDH3I
DescriptionFUNCTION: Calcium-dependent cell-adhesion protein involved in cells self-recognition and non-self discrimination. Thereby, it is involved in the establishment and maintenance of specific neuronal connections in the brain. .
