Adhesive activity of C-cadherin and mutant cadherin molecules assessed by aggregation in suspension. Parental CHO cells, C-CHO cells (clone 12), CT-CHO cells (clone 11), CT669-CHO cells (clone A1) and CT-CAT-CHO cells (clone 13), which were all matched for similar expression levels, were isolated by trypsinization in the presence of Ca²⁺, then allowed to aggregate in suspension. After 45 min the number of individual cells remaining in suspension (N_t) was counted and expressed as a percentage of the number of cells counted in the freshly isolated suspension (N₀). Increased aggregation is reflected in a fall in the N_t/ N₀ ratio. Data are means ± SE (n = 3).
