==Overview==
==Overview==
Crystal structures of the amino-terminal domain of N-cadherin provide a, picture at the atomic level of a specific adhesive contact between cells., A repeated set of dimer interfaces is common to the structure in three, lattices. These interactions combine to form a linear zipper of molecules, that mirrors the linear structure of the intracellular filaments with, which cadherins associate. This cell-adhesion zipper may provide a, mechanism to marshal individual molecular adhesive interactions into, strong bonds between cells.
