Cadherin-3, also known as P-Cadherin, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDH3 gene. This gene is a classical cadherin from the cadherin superfamily. The encoded protein is a calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion glycoprotein composed of five extracellular cadherin repeats, a transmembrane region and a highly conserved cytoplasmic tail. Mutations in this gene have been associated with congential hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy.
