This gene is a novel mucin-like gene that is a member of
the cadherin superfamily. While encoding nonpolymorphic tandem
repeats rich in proline, serine and threonine similar to mucin
proteins, the gene also contains sequence encoding calcium-binding
motifs found in all cadherins. The role of the hybrid extracellular
region and the specific function of this protein have not yet been
determined. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding
different isoforms have been described.1) Bailey, S.D., et al. Diabetes Care 33(10):2250-2253(2010)
