OverviewNCBI Gene
This gene is a type II classical cadherin from the cadherin superfamily and one of three cadherin 7-like genes located in a cluster on chromosome 18. The encoded membrane protein is a calcium dependent cell-cell adhesion glycoprotein comprised of five extracellular cadherin repeats, a transmembrane region and a highly conserved cytoplasmic tail. Type II (atypical) cadherins are defined based on their lack of a HAV cell adhesion recognition sequence specific to type I cadherins. Since disturbance of intracellular adhesion is a prerequisite for invasion and metastasis of tumor cells, cadherins are considered prime candidates for tumor suppressor genes.

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads CDH20 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against CDH20 could matter depends on whether native CDH20 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
CDH20 is annotated at the cell surface, where native CDH20 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label CDH20 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
