Abstract
⺠Type I cadherins are weak binders, but confer strong adhesion through cooperativity. ⺠Cadherin specificity is not fully attributed to interacting extracellular domains. ⺠Type II cadherins establish large contact interfaces, but weak adhesions. ⺠Cadherin dynamics sustain epithelial cell plasticity.
